Warbird left Port Hawkesbury this morning for our first destination of St. Peters. This town is located on the Bras D’Or Lake. This is a large lake surrounded by Cape Breton Island. In order for Warbird to enter the lake from the south we had to go through the St Peter’s lock. Once through the lock we moored for the evening at St Peters Marina.

The gates close and the lock raise Warbird less than a foot.

After the lock, we had to go through a swing bridge.

Not much room on each side. Jim did a great job of maneuvering Warbird through the canal.
