Finally back home after helping my friend bring his new Kirie 36.4 home.
We brought the boat back from St Paul de l'Ile aux Noix to Cardinal.
200 Nm
Friday left Marina Gosselin and was able to do lock 10 and dock to Lock 9 for the night.
Saturday we were able to do all 9 locks of the Chambly canal plus the St Ours lock. We docked for the night.
Sunday left StOurs for Sorel were we put up the mast, provisionned and continued to Montreal were we anchored besides the Longueil Yatch club.
Monday we started our journey for the seaway locks. The first four being the most difficult (customer services are not at there best) St-Lambert, Ste-Catherine. We lost 3 hours at Ste Catherines because there was nobody to accept us. Because of this we we only abke to get to the Melocheville marina where we stayed the night.
Tuesday we were able to do the Beauharnois locks, the 3rd and last lift bridges and Sneel and Eisenhower locks. We stopped at the Iroquois locks at 01:30 and they advised us we could only go thru later i.e. 08:30 so we slept a few hours before crossing the lock and arriving at our destination i.e. Iroquois marine services.
