Smuggler Harbor to Fort Lennox St Paul Ile aux Noix

Got up at 8, put the dinghy back on the Dinghy Tow and departed the anchorage.  I noticed how clear the water in Lake Champlain was.

I called CBP at Rouses Point to see if I needed to check out of the USA.  I told him I had a cruising permit and cruising license.  He told me he "did not think so".

I headed north slowly at 2000 rpm arriving at Canada Customs at 2:30.  Canada Customs was a breeze and they were amused that I kissed the ground.  Customers was a breeze.

I headed for St. Jean, but Hal was unavailable on Monday to do the Chambly locks, so I stopped at Fort Lennox for the night.  

The anchorage east of the island was congested with over 100 boats at anchor.
