Le Boat Arrives

A new fleet of touring boats for rent on the Rideau Canal has formally arrived in Smiths Falls.

Earlier this month Le Boat hosted an unveiling at their boat yard in Smiths Falls and Le Boat’s Global Managing Director Cheryl Brown says the expansion has been in the works for around three years.

The boats were built in Poland but have been designed for Canadian waterways and spent their first voyage as cargo, as they crossed the Atlantic.

According to Le Boat the self-piloted crafts will give visitors a new way to see the Rideau Canal, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The company is investing $16 million dollars into their Rideau Canal expansion and moved their North American headquarters to Smiths Falls last fall.

The boats are expected to launch this spring and more details about the company can be found here.
