Larger ships have to be towed by tugs.

Bruh i actually did skim over it a second time because i expected it to be there, but i still missed it somehow. Thanks for the correction :) But yeah point being the big ass ships cant maneuver precisely enough to be allowed to steer themselves in a canal this narrow.

Sorry yeah, that was definitely rude, having a bad morning, figured like you replied to a response to them and just didn’t read the comment… so common these days unfortunately.
