I am happy to report we have successfully imported our LT31 Florida from
over the pond.   Unfortunately we had to cut our trip short with an
injection pump issue, but we made it back to Ontario.      I'll be sending
the pump out for rebuild next week.

Something else we discovered - it is darn near impossible to find a propane
filling station in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick!   Many of the places
listed online have removed their tanks.  I gave up and endured fast food for
the rest of the trip.  Our tank was emptied prior to shipping on the
boat.   Make sure your tank is full before you get too far east!  The most
expensive diesel I have purchased in Canada was $1.39 in NB.  (Still less
than the 1.45 Euro I paid in Germany!)

More to come in future, we'll try and make it out to more campouts next
year.  For anyone interested in the entire import process to Canada - that
will cost you a beer.  :)  We traveled 2500km so far with her in Canada, and
3000k in Germany.
