Great Loop  

Thank you for another interesting and enjoyable video.

Great adventure. Thanks for taking us along. !!!

Congratulations on a very busy day! Return to Canada and completion of the canal. Thanks so much for sharing, your photography and story line are very compelling.

Welcome home. I have enjoyed your voyage very much.

The excitement showed on both of you at the beginning of the Video. It should as you are back on native soil. The canal was a special treat and the ice cream at the end was a welcome home reward. Enjoy

Welcome back to Canada. That interesting country you went through.

I live in Chambly and just found your video. It was very enjoyable, you took some good shots of Chambly. Living in Chambly, we take it for granted, but you have shown that it is really quite a nice place to live. I will have to find the rest of your videos.

Good morning to you both! We have enjoyed watching your journey and appreciate you sharing it with us. How wonderful you are back home, safely! We have learned so much from you both. We are approaching our sail date to begin the great loop with our dog Odie, and our cat Willie. I have been trying to locate where I can purchase sheets for our boat. I don't know if I am typing in the wrong words or what my issue might be, but I can't find a place to purchase them. May I ask where you get yours? Thank you in advance for your help. Congratulations on arriving home! Exciting day for you - as exciting as the first day!

We have enjoyed watching your videos this past year! Wondering if you will be doing a recap video, Q&As, tips/tricks, must-takes, must-dos, etc. We really do appreciate all of your hard work!

Welcome home guys

That was wonderful. What a "cute" waterway. We will be transiting the Richelieu/Chambly system in the other direction next summer! Thank you for your narration Rachel.

The Chambly canal appeared to be an unusual and charming trip; it seemed very European in ambience . Your photography is excellent. Thank you for your perspectives.

This video brought back distant memories cruising the Chambly canal as a young boy (along with my three sisters) in my Dad's 26' wooden boat that we kept in Montreal. Nothing much has really changed except for the automated bridges, newer houses and the style of the boats. It's always nice to cross the border back into Canada. Thanks for continuing to share your trip. It is appreciated. We are off to Sydney, Australia in a week or so to visit grand kids so I'll be watching your adventures from there.

Chambly = Charming

“Burden Laid Down” what a hauntingly beautiful piece of music. Our son has an MS degree in trombone performance, and when I heard this tune, it reminded me of the School’s trombone choir that practiced every Sunday night. Sometimes we were permitted to sit in and listen. Your travels appear to be coming to an end shortly and we will miss watching your adventures - but all good things come to an end and it is good to be home again. Perhaps you will find more adventures in the future to share with us. Best of luck to both of you.

You two look delighted to be back in Canada! Congratulations on making it back after your long adventure. I enjoyed the scenery as you were going through Chambly Locks. Do y'all speak French?

No matter how good the trip, it’s always good to be back in your home country. (I guess unless it’s somewhere like North Korea 😂).

Congratulations on completing the loop! And thank you for documenting your Journey. Everything I've watched has been very enjoyable. So what's next? Any plans for a New Journey? Maybe a trip through the Saint Lawrence Seaway and out and then down the East Coast?

Welcome back guys! When do you expect to pass Montreal and lac St Louis?

Say it isn't so! You are actually selling "Stay Cool?" WHY? The Great Loop isn't the only great adventure for boaters. There is the Northeast Circle. For You, the starting point would be Quebec. Cruise East on the St. Lawrence Seaway to the Canadian Maritimes. Across to Maine and harbor hopping down the New England Coast, stopping at Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, Long Island Sound to the Hudson River and return to Quebec via the route you just completed. Your videos have been so well presented with very informative narratives it is a shame if your efforts should end without that secondary, lesser travelled, but equally beautiful and interesting Northeast Circle.
