Best Answer

Ocean-going ships can travel from the Atlantic Ocean to Duluth Minnesota through the St. Lawrence Seaway, which is a series of canals, locks, rivers and lakes that is the world's longest inland waterway that can handle ocean-going vessels. In 1959 President Dwight Eisenhower and Great Britian's Queen Elizabeth II formally opened the Seaway. The maximum allowed ocean-going vessel size is 740 feet (225.6 meters) long, 78 feet (23.8 meters) wide and 26 feet (7.9 meters) deep. Only 10% of ocean-going ships may travel the entire length of the Seaway.
