Safety issue/margin, I would presume, whereas the cruise ship was trying to set a record and thus probably got whoever was in charge to waive the normal standards.
17.6m was probably the maximum allowed width, but it was possible to pass through with bigger ships, but my guess is that insurance companies would not like it very much
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.
It can only accommodate 58ft wide ships but it can accomodate a 74 ft wide ship?

I assume it didnt go through there by itself as you can guess by the ropes tied to the tow ship that is probably pulling it.
Yes that was addressed in the comment.

All good, enjoy your day ^^
Just gotta push it, push it real good
I wonder if this is width at waterline vs. overall width confusion?
