IYM Captains crossing Corinth Canal

During the past summer, many IYM Captains showcased their nautical skills by navigating through the Corinth Canal. This feat demands competence, precision, and a deep understanding of the unique challenges posed by this strait. The strong currents, tight quarters, and heavy traffic necessitate flawless navigation.

Crossing the Corinth Canal, despite its difficulties, offers a significant advantage in terms of distance covered. Saving hundreds of nautical miles by avoiding circumnavigating the Peloponnese is a sensible logistical and economic choice. Captains who embraced this challenge demonstrated their level of expertise and saved valuable time and resources for their vessels, making the Corinth Canal a strategic choice for maritime adventures in the region.
