Catching up . . . it’s a never-ending task, but a useful one. Let’s start with these two tugboats still under wraps at Isle aux Coudres Ocean shipyard. It’s not the best image, but with the wind, it was the best I could get. Anyone help with identification?
RF Grant is a 1934 tug up on a marine railway on Île d’Orléans, just downstream from Quebec City.
At the main Ocean Group yard, it’s Ocean’s Taiga and Tundra, and Clovis T.
Ocean Henry Bain is on the inland side.
Quebec is inseparable with their blue.
Cue the next day and farther upstream, it’s Aldo H.
Boatmen 6 and more at their dock.
Nearer the port, it’s Ocean Serge Genois and Ocean Bertrand Jeansonne.
Excuse the blurred shot, but it’s Ocean Pierre Julien and Ocean Jupiter. Particulars on all the Ocean boats can be found here.
As we climb higher up the Saint Lawrence, we get to the US DOT boats, Robinson Bay and the brand new
brand-spanking-new Seaway Trident.
For our last boat today, it’s Seaway Joan, a Lake Michigan 1952 boat, a great name and great little boat.

Marc Piché has photos of St. Lawrence shipping in all seasons, and truth be told, I haven’t had time to look through all these 22,000 + shots, but I will.
Ocean A. Simard recently assisted in getting the last ships out of the Seaway before the end of the season.
Ocean Echo II has appeared on this blog once before.
Ocean Georgie Bain has been here before but without snow cover.
This is what Montreal looks like as the days shorten. Ocean Jupiter has appeared here before also, but on a rainy fall day.
Also from Marc, have you seen this boat before? He took it while visiting Boston in January 1978!
Here’s my best matching shot, one that I took at the mouth of the Rondout in June 2012.
Why not another . . . I took this along the Troy waterfront park in 2013.
Many thanks to Marc for use of his photos.
Here are the previous in this series.
As we depart downstream on this rainy day, Ocean Pierre Julien heads upstream.
Ocean Intrepide stands by Silver Manoora and Mars S.
Over alongside Sorel-Tracy, Ocean Jupiter heads upstream for reasons beyond my ken.
The twins wait in Quebec City, and
Ocean Serge Genois, farther upstream.
