No stated length or beam limit for this waterway. Its controlling physical limit is draught.
What "fits" means here
A canal fit is more than a length and beam number. Real transits depend on draught, air draught, operational drafts, tidal conditions, transit rules and the authority's current restrictions. This tool answers one narrow question: does the vessel's reported length and beam fit inside the stated waterway envelope?
The Panama numbers are the classic and expanded lock dimensions. The Suez "Suezmax" figures are practical classification-society guidance rather than fixed lock dimensions, because the canal's limits are set by draught and regulations rather than by parallel lock walls. Malacca is included as a draught-controlled waterway with no simple length or beam statement. Draught is not recorded on most directory profiles, so the tool reports whether it could be checked rather than inventing a value.
Reference dimensions: Panamax · New Panamax · Suezmax · Malaccamax. Limits are stated approximations for educational comparison. Operational limits can change; always confirm with the waterway authority and the vessel's draught before treating a transit as possible.
