Have spent the past couple of months with a mechanic going over the boat from stem to stern. He found a few things to repair, and of course, everything is taking longer than anticipated - a result of lots of rain and a need to repair more than we had thought we needed. Currently one shaft is being replaced with one being built in Ganonoque; they promised to have it ready in a week, so we hope they can do so. We took it to them today. We are grateful that the boat is tied up while we are at home rather than part way around the loop.
Meanwhile, we have applied for a Nexus card, will make arrangements, we hope, for an interview next week. Also have to look at health insurance for our stay in the US. We have a radio license for the boat (a requirement in the US, but not in Canada), and a license for the dinghy. Still have to arrange health insurance for our stay in the US. Things are coming together, and we hope to leave either next weekend or the beginning of the following week, just a week behind schedule so far.
