The lock tender paired us up with M\V Indigo to head out Tuesday morning and then another power boat came through the lock in the morning that we had to wait for and he was second in line. All three boats then went through the 5 locks together. That part of the canal is narrow and it is one way traffic to the first drawbridge so it is coordinated by the lock tender. We stopped in Chambly before the last three locks and the other two boats continued on. It was a hot day at 94 degrees and being in the sun most of the day tending lines at the locks. We hooked up to power at the dock in Chambly and this is our first day of air conditioning. The holiday celebration was set up right across the canal from us. We are tied up to a Ranger tug that we saw at Rouse's Point Marina that is flying their looper flag.
