About Sainte-Anne-de-Sorel Range Rear Lighthouse
This skeletal steel tower, built in 2019 and first lit in 2020, stands 24 meters tall with its light at a focal height of 31 meters. It serves as the rear range light, located 770 meters southwest of its front counterpart on the south bank of a river. The structure features a triangular skeletal mast topped with a gallery and a trapezoidal slatted daymark, painted red with a black vertical stripe. The light emits a continuous green signal, visible for 15.5 nautical miles when vessels are correctly aligned on the range. A previous structure, also skeletal but with an enclosed upper section, lantern, and gallery, was replaced by this current mast.
Why it matters: This rear range light is essential for guiding vessels along a specific river channel. Its continuous green light provides precise alignment, ensuring safe passage for traffic.
