Also known as the Lake, The Gatun Lake is the 2nd stretch of the Ocean to Ocean Cayuco Race. Hence, when cayuco paddlers use the phrase "To do a Lake", they refer to paddle the Gatun Lake in a cayuco from the Gatun Locks in Colon all the way to Buoy 93, located at ACP's Dredging Division in Gamboa.
