== Expansion completion date vs. Panamamax vessel in photo date == |
|
|
|
|
|
New to this but: article states the expansion to allow panamax vessels was completed June 26, 2016 but the panamax vessel in article photo states it is entering the lock in March 2013. Apologies if I am misunderstanding. Cheers, Billy ] (]) 04:52, 6 July 2021 (UTC) |

:] Hi Billy. Great question – I believe that both the article and the photo caption are correct. The photo, which as you noted was taken in March 2013, shows a Panamax ship traversing the Miraflores locks before the expansion project was completed. On the other hand, the article states {{xt|The new locks opened for commercial traffic on 26 June 2016, and the first ship to cross the canal using the third set of locks was a modern New Panamax vessel, the Chinese-owned container ship Cosco Shipping Panama}}. "New Panamax" refers to ships that are even larger than the old "Panamax" ships, and they pass through a set of new locks (the Agua Clara and Cocoli locks) that were constructed next to the old locks. See the photo to the right. So there is no contradiction between the article and the caption. Does this answer make sense? Best, ] (]) 05:12, 6 July 2021 (UTC) |

:Because the US used the enforcement of the canal treaties as part of its rationale for the invasion and arrest of Manuel Noriega.

:Yes, ], ] couldnt agree with you more- it´s horrific how the thing is extolled. the article is dominated by engineering details.
