Eurasian millfoil weeds growing up 8 feet from bottom. If you want to anchor, you need at least 10 feet depth or so to stay mostly out of weeds.

Typical metal sluice vent grate. In the 1800's a rotund canal Supervisor fell through the wooden grate 13 ft into the rock sluiceway to be spit out into the lock pit amazingly mostly alive. He mandated steel grates which are still there today, 180 years later.

Imagine the work involved with hacking through solid granite and the engineering involved 186 years ago to accurately determine the depth a canal needed to be over hundreds of miles to maintain a 4 ft depth!

Example of the painted "Blue Line" which tells the lock workers you wish to lock through. There were no VHF radios 186 years ago, so lock workers don't have any. However, you can always call a lock on their cell phone, just like 186 years ago. Don't tie up on the Blue Line even for a 5 minute bathroom break.
