And let’s make these mostly blue . . . Ocean Groupe, and mostly tugboats. I took this photo six weeks ago in Montreal.
Ocean Stevns and Ocean Delta were at the home dock in Quebec City. Birk Thomas had caught Ocean Delta here once four years ago.
Here’s Ocean Rusby, an incomplete and nameless vessel (Cecon Excellence?), and an Ocean pilot boat.
Ocean Henri Bain and a small fishing boat lie across from the pastoral Ile d’Orleans.
Kanguk II –a NEAS (Nunavut Eastern Arctic Shipping) small tugboat–appears to be a sister to Qimu here. Along the port side of Kanguk II are barges for delivering containers from ship to shore.
In Montreal, it’s Ocean Serge Genois and (possibly) Ocean Intrepide.
Closer to the city, it’s Ocean Pierre Julien and Ocean Georgie Bain. I don’t know the names of the two smaller boats to the right.
These smaller workboats include OC 32
La Trenche, and an unidentified boat underneath this bridge to NYC.
Will Van Dorp took all these photos.

Qimu and and Kanguk II are both owned by Transport Inukshuk, Iqaluit, and built by Chantier Naval Florillon at Gaspe (the former in 2008, the latter in 2007), but the Qimu is considerably larger at over 46 feet in length, while the Kanguk II is 26.
