New concept in boat launching near St. Ours, QuebecJune 27, 2008
St. Ours Lock, Quebec Canada
We locked through all 9 locks today on the Canadian side. We entered customs this morning around 7:30am and made it through without a hitch. They were very pleasant and couldn’t believe we came all the way from Florida by boat. We looked around St. Jean locks and city before locking through the 1st lock. We decided to purchase the seasonal pass for the passage and the mooring on the locks and boat docks at Canadian locks in the thousand islands. We tied up for the night at the last lock before the Sorel and walked into the little village of St. Ours which was about 4 ½ miles round trip. We had a really nice meal in a French bar and restaurant on the water. They spoke very little English, but we managed to understand the menu and the food was good. I must say the French DO know how to cook.
