Contrecoeur

Good morning

We did not stop at Sorel. We crossed lake St Pierre very slowly but with flat seas. We went into Sorel and got diesel, by the way we are up to about 260 litres of diesel. Then decided to go to Comtrecoeur. We are about 25 kns from Montreal we will stay at Longueuil tomorrow. We do not have a schedule but by the itinerary I set in the winter to get us to the rendezvous we are about 4 or 5 days ahead. We radioed Le Parc Nautique de Contrecoeur at about 6:45 and got no answer so we radioed Le Port de Plaisance de Contrecoeur and got no answer. There seemed to be only one solution, just arrive. When we got to the Parc a gentleman was on his boat. Bessie tie up over there they are away on holidays. We tied up and asked if anyone else was around. He said no they all go home at 7:00, but would be back at 9:00. I said do we need a key to get back in he said yes, here's mine just put it on the boat when you are leaving.

In the morning I but $41 and a note in a bag and left it at the office with a man who said the gentleman I must pay would be in around 9:00. We left at 8:35 and are headed for Le Port de Plaisance Rela-Bouvier in Longueuil. We have not made any final decisions but may stay for two days and go into Montreal.
