After a day of rain, the morning sky was blue and 10 degrees C I weighed anchor at 9:10 and headed north. At 9:43, I received an email stating that locks C1 to C4 were not functioning due to high water levels.
I headed to the public dock at Troy to wait it out.
The current was almost 3 knots, making it difficult to dock BELLUM single-handed. It took two approaches. The dock master thinks that it might take two days for the locks to reopen. There is still the Federal Lock before the Champlain locks, but it is better to wait at Troy. It sounds congested after Federal Lock.
Troy looked touristy, and there was a vegan food fair in town
There is no news about when the Champlain locks might open.
I met Summer Time and Le petite bateau blue at tbe dock
