They send a lot by tug and barge. Some of the loads you see going up there are quite precarious looking, containers stacked 6+ high with all sorts of "loose" cargo on top, from RVs to excavators to small boats on trailers. It would be a real shame if they had to travel through international waters instead of the nice, sheltered inside passage.
