They passed a 67 foot power boat about 2PM. He was going to be the 9AM departure on Tuesday I was annoyed that they let him through before me. They told me that I would be at 1PM on Tuesday since there would be no staff at 9AM.
I met Palbert and his girlfriend at the lock. I talked him to come help me through the locks tomorrow. He agreed to. I had lots of doubt and concern about him. I talked a lot and I was not too sure how stable he was.
On Tuesday morning, it rained and stopped about 10:30 and Hal showed up and we chatted and prepared to depart. The other boat wanted his fenders on the port side so I departed the dock a little earlier to switch my fenders to starboard.
The lockage went well except at lock 7, a fender got caught against the wall and ripped off the handrail it was attached to hand rail.
At Lock 2, Matin showed up with a dock wheel that I wanted to buy on FB marketplace.
After lock 1, we docked. We were going to go for a late lunch and met a dock operator and we asked if anyone was driving back to St. Jean and Yve was at 1700. We had lunch —- a Montreal Pizza consisting a a funny dough with smoked meat and yellow mustard … at $33, it was quite pricy.
After Had departed, I had a beer with Catherine and her crew who was docked in front of BELLUM.
They gave me the shower code for the marina and I had a shower.
I departed the dock for an anchorage nearby.
