Early morning starts are essential when adapting to shorter
hours and manpower on the Trent-Severn in 2013.
Just before sunrise, Terrmar quietly left the lock wall, gliding through
a light mist rising from the tranquil canal.
The sun soon emerged, showcasing the lazy, meandering, marshy landscape
prominent along the gateway to the Kawarthas (cottage country).

By day’s end we had arrived in Hastings Village Marina, Hastings,
Ont. Terrmar had “locked-through” locks
9-18 today, including two second flight locks (double locks or 2 in 1
locks). Lock 11/12 – Ranney Fall’s
Flight Lock rising 48 feet and Lock 16/17 – Healey Falls Flight Lock rising 54
feet had given us an exhausting but satisfying work-out!
