At 10h10, we leave our little cove and start our ascent. We see Wicko, a titan at 623 feet long and 75 feet wide while Laurentia Desgagnés, a Valkyrie with a length of 738 feet a width of 105 feet is now on the horizon.
The river is more like a long slender corridor, I keep to the and guarantees our survival nothing. Once Wicko beyond us, it sneaks up behind him to leave all the room to Laurentia.
As we approach Trois-Rivières, we start hugging the west shore to try to minimize the current.
We now see the Laviolette Bridge at Trois-Rivières approach and decided to refuel and draining skeptical before going to anchor at the mouth of the St. Maurice. Marina Trois-Riviere offers good services. The pump out was problematic, repeatedly having to re-prime the suction pump. Eventually, we visually inspected the tank
One can stay in dock for $ 5 / hour time to go grocery shopping in town or going to pay a good little tuck. The taxi service is very reliable and efficient.
We restocked groceries for three to four days to sit it out relaxing in the Sorel Islands.
We went out to Trois-Riviere anchorage and anchored a little further out than our previous anchorage.
