Hello Jim and thanks. That was something I should have acknowledged in the article. -- Richard (from F'ton, commonly known in the airline industry as Freddie Beach -- not sure why. For non-Canadians, we are on the Saint John River at more or less the end of the continuously navigable stretch, roughly 100 km from the Bay of Fundy. Lots of sand bars but not much in the way of a beach!)
