    In an offical document it is stated that the fees paid by the ships using the canal as of 2009 only covered 20-30% of the cost of operating and upgrading the canal, the rest covered by the German state. I was surpriced to learn. Maybe as of 2023 the fees cover more of the operating costs

    • @manatee2500

      It is normal that the users (shipowners) pay tolls that are sufficient to cover the operating and capital costs over the canal’s useful life. This is the case for other canals and the concept of ‘user pays’ also applies for other improvements made to ports, rivers, and channels open to commercial navigation.

    • @callsigndd9ls897
      @callsigndd9ls897 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The North Sea is subject to the tides, where the difference can be 5 meters (16 ft) or more. There are no tides in the Baltic Sea, but the water level can fluctuate by 1 to 2 meters (3 to 6 ft) due to the influence of the wind. If there were no locks, the canal would be a raging river that changes its flow direction every 6 hours.

    • @manatee2500
      @manatee2500 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      This is a concept that is enshrined into maritime law. The pilot is considered to be a servant to the master. The reason is that cargo interests have a contract with the owner to carry the goods. Also in the case of accident or other liability it would be practically impossible for either party to recover damages from a pilot. Shipowners are able to rely upon the ability to limit their liability in the instances of pilot or crew error. Because of this cargo owners are able to insure themselves against loss by buying marine insurance. The same concept applies to terminal operators (stevedores).

      @@johnburns4017 Of course, the Suez Canal is a great achievement. However, it was easier to connect the Red Sea to the Mediterranean via two large existing lakes simply by shoveling away enough loose sand. Flat desert land with no hills to cut through. No rivers to be diverted, no densely populated land to have to build new road and railway connections and no huge locks because there were no differences in height between the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. I would rather cite the Panama Canal as an example of an even greater achievement. The construction of this canal was truly a super achievement compared to the Suez Canal.
      Well, the Manchester Ship Canal connects a city to the sea over a short distance, but not two seas to each other. That may be important for Manchester, but it hardly plays a role for international shipping. If you use the canal as an example, you would also have to mention all inland waterway canals, such as the Mittelland Canal or the Havel-Oder waterway, the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal. Not to mention the great French canals.

      You still save 40% fuel, because the losses caused by gears and trnsmission are eliminated to drive the Voith-Schneider propellers. The ferries have 2 Voith-Schneider propellers (front and rear), which in the new ferries are driven directly by electric motors. In addition, the diesel engine runs on LNG.

      its pretty common for ships to use generators hooked up to electric engines

      They still save 40% fuel, because the losses caused by gears and trnsmission are eliminated to drive the Voith-Schneider propellers. The ferries have 2 Voith-Schneider propellers (front and rear), which in the new ferries are driven directly by electric motors. A full charge with electricity from the land does not work because the ferries moor for a maximum of 3 minutes and then start sailing again immediately. In addition, the diesel engine runs on LNG. Most huge cruise ships today are diesel-electric powered.
