Vessel Type: Power
LOA: 76'
Draft: 5.0'Continue speedy transit as # 7 was ready and took us right in. Line handlers from 8 drove and met us and drove to each lock and stayed with us until out of system. Nice touch as they were both great people and we built a relationship and I think it made the trip go easier, I hope the Seaway continues this process.

Draft: 5.0'What can you say about a lock with a 40' drop with concrete walls that are pocked and chipped with rebar sticking out. Be Careful and have plenty of fenders. Down-bound (Lake Erie-Ontario) is ok but up-bound is a thrill ride and there is only six more.
