Explanation:
Als deze omschrijving van wikipedia van toepassing is:
A canal pound, reach, or level (American usage), is the stretch of level water impounded between two canal locks.

dan is deze vertaling van toepassing denk ik:
~kanaalpand:
gedeelte van een kanaal tussen twee sluizen. Soms ook vaartpand genoemd.
