OUR CAPTAINS
For over 175 years, the Lachance family has been plying the waters of the St. Lawrence around the 21 magnificent islands of the Isle-aux-Grues Archipelago. The simple canoes used in the old days were, over time, joined by iceboats and fishing boats. Today, they are proud to have visitors discover the beauty of their beloved islands aboard splendid cruise boats.
