Rimuski update

Well after three days of sitting in port waiting for the Gale warning to lift and to receive a part we on our way again at 9 am this morning.

It was a nice marina with a nice but over priced restaurant for what they offered.  We had dinner there one night and only 1 out of the three of us like our meal.  The marina charged $62.00 a night to stay there and they offered water, power, laundry,  wireless, showers, bikes and fuel.  But they have removed their pump out station.

There is a very well stocked marine store right across the street.  He was able to over night the part we needed from Quebec City by bus.  He told me that the store has been there for 45 years.

Also just 5 km down the road is Pointe-au-Pierre which is where the old navy sub was made into a museum.   We walk down there yesterday afternoon and took a tour of the sub.  The navy should be very proud of the way they have her displayed.  Very well done.
