The current in the Cape Cod Canal can exceed 7 knots at times. The last
time I took Mrs.E's 36' Grand Banks through the canal (against the
current) the people walking along the walker's path on the side of the
canal were going faster than I was and I had the throttle pretty much
wide open.

A few were laughing and waving at me as I struggled along making all of
about 2 knots forward.
