ABOUT US
Hi! We are high school sweethearts from Atlanta, Georgia who decided to take a year off to travel around the world. Together we decided to create vlogs for our journey as a fun way to remember it. On September 15, 2019, we left Atlanta with 3 bags, 2 one-way tickets, and 1 goal of traveling for a whole year. Little did we know, 6 months later we would find ourselves in a nationwide lockdown in India. After spending 5 months in India, we came back to the United States and decided to purchase a 34’ Trawler, dive headfirst into boat life, and kick-off America’s Great Loop.
The good, the bad, the ugly - and most importantly, the real and real funny. We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.”, just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem.
Thank you for following us along our journey!

Jenn, great job getting off the dock! Another great vlog! It looked like a really nice, peaceful cruise and having it lined with all the trees makes it so pleasant. Happy and safe travels.

@randyputnam1056 2 года назад

Lovin’ it! Brings back a lot of great memories of our 2008 transit. Noticing Pivot’s “Canal Moustache”. No amount of cleanser would take it off, but wet sanding did the trick. Keep on keepin on!

@SchoandJo Год назад

Thanks Randy! It does come of really easily with Lemon Juice, the problem is that it comes right back. We just bought some Wax though, so next time we clean it we will wax it and hopefully that makes it last!

@shapeoftimes Год назад

Great video guys! We've just been to Lockport New York and learnt a little bit about the history of the Erie Canal. Greetings from Canada!

I wonder why someone doesn't clear the logs. Love watching as usual. I'm gonna sent u a Tilley hat since I can't come. My job as a prison chaplain doesn't allow long vacations. I have family on Lake Michigan I'd love to visit on this trip. Thanks for my nightly de stress video!! Whooo!

We were cruising on Lake Huron in August and the small trawler that you filmed, looked a lot like one that we saw in, I believe, East Tawas, Michigan.

@SchoandJo Год назад

Oh cool! Definitely could have been, I know they did take that section of the Loop

@timharrison9060 2 года назад

Jenn, next time you need to tell "someone" to get on the boat, go ahead and leave him behind.... at least for a few feet....LoL.... stay safe, Tim and Cat

@SchoandJo Год назад

haha

@sterlingkennedy3006 Год назад

When you put your midship line around a pipe in a lock, put a piece of water hose over it, that helps is travel up the pipe easier. Look up Capt. STerling's looper loop on You tube

@roderic96 Год назад

I'm loving watching your videos and it is helping us plan for our Great Loop journey in a few years. Quick question, and you may have answered it before....Why can't you run your AC off your generator? I thought that was one of the advantages of having a generator on board.

@SchoandJo Год назад

We actually can, we learned how a bit later. Effectively what would happen is that our inverter would switch on when the AC was starting, and this would blow a fuse. We learned that we need to turn the inverter "inverting mode" off while the generator is on and it won't switch back and voila it worked! We figured that out on the Rivers when we needed the heat lol

@stevechurch2126 Год назад

Does Halfling have a blog? Interested to know more about their C-Dory. Thank you this is a great channel to watch.

@SchoandJo Год назад

I tried to find it but I'm not aware that they do... You may try to find their account on Nebo and send them a message though! Cheers.

@lutacrew 2 года назад

Just found your channel. My wife and I are looking forward to starting with your beginning on a trawler. I’ve been a sailor for 50 years. We lost everything in H Ian. Our Beneteau 46.4. Time to move away from offshore sailing. We have a Pilgrim 40 under contract. It took a hurricane to move me from rags to stinkpot. We hope To learn from your experiences

@SchoandJo Год назад

Darn Stephen, sorry to hear about that! I hope you enjoy the transition to the dark side, and enjoy your Pilgrim 40! They are beautiful boats

@jrac863 Год назад

great video guys .You were right around the corner from us in Schuyler ny.When did you film this?

@SchoandJo Год назад

Nice! This was filmed July 2nd, cheers!

@EdEdelenbos 2 года назад

Another great cruise. You edit out the overstress parts don't you? I guess you showed them on the NJ coast vids. You make it look so doable.

@SchoandJo Год назад

We don't really edit out the over stress parts - we keep it about as real as we can while keeping it short enough for RU-vid 😁

Rome is my birthplace. Have fun going through Delta Lake and you’ll have a BLAST in Buffalo and Tonawanda. 😁

@MrTireFlat Год назад

The canal doesn't pass through delta.

@johnlozina1219 Год назад

@@MrTireFlat you are correct, I meant to say Oneida Lake.😉

@SchoandJo Год назад

Oneida was quite the lake!! Unfortunately we are taking the Oswego Canal North instead of the full Erie to Buffalo. Next time!

@@SchoandJo get yourself some Buffalo Wings and Pizza with Old World pepperoni 😋 and all the other good food they have to offer.

@toastymctoast420 Год назад

This is actually my town we have a lot of history here btw that log that's in the water at the end on the dam is kinda like a local know thing because there was one other log that was there that stayed for years now this log is the replacement for years to come lol

@SchoandJo Год назад

Lol thats pretty funny. Thanks for the local knowledge!

@kenstrang9784 2 года назад

You should have a 50 to 30 amp converter adapter on board. They are not that expensive. With my 30A motorhome if 50 30 and 20 receptacles in a panel I will normally use the 50A with an adapter.

@SchoandJo Год назад

Makes sense! We've never really needed one, except once on the Loop so far so it would be a nice to have 😁

@AlaskaRog 2 года назад

You might want to carry an adapter that lets you use your 30 amp cord in a 50 amp plug. Simple and easy.

@SchoandJo Год назад

Maybe... we'd need two adapters for 120 and 240 50A so we will see!

@AlaskaRog Год назад

@@SchoandJo it’s a single adapter with a male plug that goes into a 50 amp receptacle and a female plug that your 30 amp shore power plug goes into. They are readily available in the marine and rv world.

@Step-up35 2 года назад

What is the maximum height through the canal?

@SchoandJo Год назад

For the entire Erie its 15.5 feet, for the section we went on, I'm not sure, maybe something like 25 feet?

@roydora Год назад

No comercial traffic?

happy Halloween kids ,sorry i missed ya at lock 20 ive been to a few parties at aqua fina , your correct not worth it . PEACE

@mitch326m 2 года назад

What is you height from water line to top of fly bridge?

@SchoandJo Год назад

Roughly 15 feet, we've never measured it. We are 18 to the top of our mast though.

@cruisingholiday4996 2 года назад

Years ago when trans versing the canal system in Ny we were told that each lockmaster calls ahead to the next lock as to the time you exit the current lock and that the next lockmaster can and does calculate based on the time you left and then arrive at the next lock they determine how fast you travel between the locks. They calculate your speed and if they determine you exceeded the speed limit set they had they authority to not allow you passage, fine the captain for speeding, detain you and the boat and I was told that they could even impound the boat. I never actauuly was able to find out if this was factual or just some untrue story that had spread around. Who knows ?? Just passing on what I was told.

@SchoandJo Год назад

Hmm never heard of that, there were some fast boats and we didn't see anyone getting impounded. What I do know is that the people living on the canal will call the lock tenders if you are not responsible and throw a massive wake.

@josepharcuri8693 2 года назад

That's Utica. The food is good a ex NHL player owns the restaurant. 1 dollar per foot to hook up, and 3 in Utica (sin city) that's about right. Lol the boys gotta get their cut.

interesting!! thanks for sharing Joseph 🤙
