Manicouagan Crater

The Manicouagan crater lies in northern Quebec, Canada (Lat 51 23N, Long 68 42W). It is one of the largest known, with a diameter of about 100 km. The crater is a multiple-ring structure, but the feature that shows up best in this Landsat satellite photo is the inner ring, which is occupied by a lake (Manicouagan 5 reservoir) with an outer diameter of about 70 km. The impact occurred 214 million years ago. The asteroid probably had a diameter of about 5 km. It may have produced a mass extinction similar to that at the end of the Cretaceous period.

Great possibilities and challenging waters and tough-looking anchorages.
How feasible is it to round the Gaspe Peninsula headed to PEI?

So, judging from that awesome picture and the title, you have a high altitude sailplane that you weren't telling us about, as well as a Magregor, Q1? :D
