August 23 – Port of Montreal and Dorval


Patrick’s recommendation was to stay within 10 feet of the shoreline.  We were usually about 10 Meters. 

We had a two-hour wait at St. Lambert lock and another couple of hours at St. Catherine's locks.  The Seaway website did say there would be a lot of commercial traffic.
We waited a further 40 minutes for the train bridge near Mercier.  Once a Via Rail train passed, they let us through.  It was getting late.  We eventually came back to Dorval in the dark.  

What a very, very long day...

What a way to buy your oil
