Review summary
I gave this just a 3-star rating because the ship shows a lot of wear, and I was not impressed with any of the shore excursions. However, if your primary interest is to transit the entire canal, enjoy warm humid weather and perhaps be with family or friends then it is worth it. For me, the PC is truly a wonderful example of human ingenuity. I thoroughly enjoyed the transit and especially the documentary film onboard on television. It gave me a real appreciation of what was accomplished over 100 years ago, without a computer! (and many other inventions of today)

Ship tip
I was impressed with the apparent strong leadership of the captain. He drills the crew frequently, and for quite long periods of time in ports. It made me feel quite secure knowing he was onboard.
