Speaking of fast boats, I heard a rumour that the poker run went the
wrong way down the St. Lawrence when 'My Way' had some trouble and
wasn't leading the way as usual. The other boats obviously just
followed the new lead boat. Rocks are pretty common if you leave the
channels around this area! At that speed you could end up lost in
about 2 minutes!
