On Sunday we trekked across Lake Ontario which was uneventful except for our own disappointment with not having the ability to finish the Erie Canal.\u00a0 Oh well, it is what it is!\u00a0 We stopped in Wilson, NY for a top up of diesel before heading to St. Catharines Marina where Conductance will sit until Tuesday before we head up the Welland Canal to her temporary resting place in Sugarloaf Marina, Port Colborne.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tracey and Brian, great friends, joined us waiting for the customs officers for importing the boat.\u00a0 While waiting I cleaned the boat.\u00a0 Darn she is dusty!\u00a0 Scott did some quick checks and updates on the Welland Canal.\u00a0 We saw a boat that was parked with us at Liberty just starting to head up the Canal.\u00a0 One gorgeous “silver bullet” as it was nicknamed.\u00a0 Once you have seen it you don’t forget it.\u00a0 Then we headed over to Tracey and Brian’s place for some dinner and reflection of the trip.\u00a0 Thanks guys!\u00a0 It was really nice to unwind.<\/p>\n
Today, June 6th, we are at the office preparing for the uplocking of the Welland Canal and making schedules, getting crew members for the trip and catching up on business.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
