C-GBEO, a privately operated Brasov IS282M motorglider was on a local visual flight rules flight from Chicoutimi/St-Honoré, QC (CYRC) airport with only 1 pilot on board. When the aircraft was established in an updraft in the Monts Valin region, the pilot stopped the engine and feathered the propeller. Unusual pressure was felt on the lever, so the pilot tried to restart the propeller (Hoffman propeller HO-V62R/L160T), without success. He then headed for CYRC, but without an engine could not glide there. He declared an emergency and landed in a marsh about 8 nautical miles north-east of CYRC. There were no injuries, but the aircraft was extensively damaged.
