    Enjoyed the video, thanks for taking us along ! Good music selection. Glad you got to experience some wind and the boat heeling. It takes on a new character when the engine is off. Ah, maybe should have killed the music at the point the sails take over. Liked the rain at the end, would have liked more natural sounds earlier. You have so many beautiful natural locations near you !

I aLLLLso would like to applaud you for your video editing and filming skiLLsz !!! It's nice to watch videos which are MORE focused on the the subject matter at hand rather than the producers faces !!! I mean isn't THAT kind of the point ??? Too many use "click bait" to lure viewers and end up being somewhat narcissistic in the direction of where the camera is being pointed !!! You are refreshingly noTTT of that mindset !!! THANK YOU !!! I bought my first house in Bellingham and have spent a lot of time in B.C. skiing and camping and just LuVVV it there !!! I have even often asked myself if maybe I should have searched for a bride up there (dual citizenship ya know) !!! LOL I was in the U.S. Coast Guard for 2 years on the bouy tender USCG Planetree stationed in Juneau Alaska. I also spent 18 years on tugboats for Foss maritime ,which allowed me to make numerous trips up and down the inside passage !!! TrUUUly "God's country" !!! You Canadians are sOOOO lucky !!!

      It seems more of a risk to sell your house to buy a boat. And even if you live on your boat a lot, it’s nice to have a homebase as somewhere to return if you become ill or injured.

Our beets didn't grow that much - probably too much heat too! Amazing you don't have to cover your kale - ours get chewed by flea beetles so we have to cover. Another big pest for us are grasshoppers!!! We grow Blueberries as a commercial crop - we have about 2 acres and we love them alot and sell out every year - so full of good fiber!

    These cutwater are virtually identical to the ranger tugs.

      You’re right Albert! They are both owned by Fluid Motion so not surprising there are similarities. Thanks for watching😎

    Do you have any information on the brand or manufacturer of your dinghy rack? I really like the way it operates based on the footage in this video. Seems easier to use than the pull-on lifts.

      Our dinghy davit system is the Hurley H3O davit system with a manual winch. Alternatively you can get an electric winch. It’s very simple and easy to use. The only downside is you must launch the dinghy to use the swim platform. Thanks for watching😎

    Royal Engineers, a British Army Corps, not a corporation :) You sailed right past my house on the lower reach. I love it here in Smiths Falls. I've enjoyed seeing the route up from Merrickville to Perth from your point of view.

    The word is “OPENING” not “OPENABLE” windows!

      Hmmm, we haven’t heard that before, so just had to check the dictionary (Oxford and Cambridge dictionaries)…‘openable’ means ‘capable of being opened’. Thanks for watching 😎

    Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the sandcastles through your eyes. The Guardian Angel was quite stunning. Lots of great works of art. Thanks for your creation!

      Ours was labelled ‘Classic’ but it had no aft cabin. It’s a mystery! Thanks for watching😎

    This brings back some very fond memories of earlier times with cottage property at the Beveridge's Locks and many Motorhome trips around the waterways of Perth and Smiths Falls. Thank You so much for the visual. Great times.

    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.

      Chambly is a lovely, quaint town and we enjoyed our visit there. It’s definitely unique to arrive by boat! Thanks so much for watching Wendi.😎

    So Malcolm, do you just plug the shorepower plug into the bluetti to power everything or do you need to run extension cords to the bluetti for fridge, microwave etc?

    • @staycool123
      @staycool123 Місяць тому

      Primarily we used solar to charge the Bluetti. A transfer switch should be installed to connect the Bluetti directly into the boat’s AC systems. Thanks for watching.😊
