August 23 – Port of Montreal and Dorval


Patrick’s recommendation was to stay within 10 feet of the shore from 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 locks.  The seaway website did say there was going to be busy with 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
