Well that all depends on where you are going and where you are starting from. However the canal is 50 miles long and it could take anywhere from 8 to 10 hours, depending on the boat size.

The Panama Canal passes Panama
yes it is a wonder considering that millions of vessels pass through the Panama Canal each day.
Panama is the only country the canal passes through. There was initially interest (a bit of which remains to this day) of building the canal through Nicaragua - there are three proposals being 'floated' around in Nicaragua currently to build a new trans-oceanic passing, but the Panama Canal only goes through Panama.
