Really nice cruise between two beautiful areas including a bunch of wildlife! We traveled (by car regretfully) from Merritt Island to St. Augustine earlier this year and now get the perspective from the ICW!
Thank you so much! We were excited to finally get them on camera! :) Such a beautiful area! We are going back, and want to anchor out and stay a while!
Good morning! We had it waxed in Orange Beach before we left. I haven't done it myself yet.. She is HUGE when you are cleaning her! I may try myself this winter when she is stored. I will let you know. :)
Hey been following all the way just caught up looks like thing are going great boat working great Bahamas a home run now back in states safe boating and hope continues to be good
Oh sure, all of the people at Halifax Harbor got to see Ollie …but we on UA-cam only got a brief glimpse. 🤔 Harumph. Really cool seeing all of the sights along the ICW, thought, going from rural to city. And what a great slip assignment at Halifax!
Thanks again for letting me sit up on the bridge with you both, Halifax Harbour looks like a great marina with everything a boater needs to traverse the ICW. Another great and informative video. Take care and looking forward to the next journey. CHEERS.
Love Cocoa Beach and Daytona. Been a long time since I was there. Thanks for the refresher. Great video as usual. Love your exploration!!! Be safe my friends.
My husband & I just found your videos a couple weeks ago & enjoy binge watching. In early stages of GL planning. Live in AZ & flying to Stuart, FL in a few weeks to stay on AirBnb houseboat & ck out boats for sale. We've learned tons from you two! Hubby has extensive boating background from living in Seattle. Thx for chronicling your travels for us. You do a GREAT job! Safe travels!
Awww, Thank you SO much Lynn! So excited for you guys! We loved our stay in Stuart. Best of luck boat shopping! All the planning and struggles are worth it! This trip was absolutely life changing :) Happy loop planning!
Thanks for sharing your adventure with us all. We just got back from a two week trip boating Lake Michigan. We met a couple from your marina in Frankfort that was heading home after a 3 month trip. So fun to ask if they knew you guys and then find out they are on your dock in Ludington. It’s incredible to know what you guys have gone through on your adventure but the way you handled it and to see you overcome it is amazing. Keep the videos coming. When you dropped a new one during our trip it was what we watched that night.
Awww, Thank you SO much! I think you met the crew on Anne Marie :) We were on our boat when the came back and had a fun Labor Day weekend sharing stories!
We have a Class A Motorhome and are headed to Perdido Key and Orange Beach to camp on the inter coastal right at the bridge! I’m sure y’all went right by there leaving after your repairs from the accident. We’ll be there 2 weeks and will get to see the Blue Angels Homecoming!
I live in the area and the Chart House is my favorite place for birthdays. You missed showing the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse, very iconic. Wanted to see which way you took around dissappearing island there at the inlet. Safe travels.
Thanks again for inviting me on a trip that I will never get to take! I have meant to say two things concerning this beautiful trip 1.I hope you have no hard feelings towards Alabama(I live here) concerning your little "episode: near Coffeeville and 2.I absolutely love your music choices!!!😀
Do plan to winter over somewhere in the mid Atlantic states as the Erie Canal, Oswego Canal, the Trent Severn Waterway, Rideau Canal System, and other historic Canadian canals only operate from roughly May to October? After watching another couple and their pup do the loop in a 34' Marine Trader Trawler I have put it on my adventure bucket list.
Our videos are behind from traveling. We actually crossed our wake in Ludington on June 1st! We are struggling with the adjustment, and are currently planning to go back south! Thank you for joining us :) This trip will change your life in ways we didn't expect. We love it :)
Hello Wayne! Andromeda drafts 3 1/2 feet. We didn't really notice any shallow areas. We wish we had a full length stainless steel skid plate lol. Hope you didn't have any damage! Thank you for joining us :)
I always wondered why you (and most loopers) take the ICW with all the bridges and traffic and not motor out in the Atlantic. Seem it would be a lot safer and more efficient.
Hello! For us, it mostly depends on the weather, and where we are traveling. We really like traveling outside, but it is fun to see the ICW. We dodged the Miami / Fort Lauderdale areas....Too many boats for us LOL. Thank you for joining us! :)
Hello. Just out of curiosity, what do you guys intend to do with Andromeda once you complete the loop? Do you intend to keep it, or do you intend to sell it? As of this video, you're passing by my old neck of the woods, Volusia County. Continued safe travels to both of you.
Hello! Thank you so much for joining us! We are keeping Andromeda! We crossed our wake in June, and we are going to winter store her this year to get some work done...but we are planning on taking her south next Fall! Whoo hoo!!! :)
Still really love following along on your adventure! Hoping to do the loop one day myself. On another note, I’m trying to find a “Like, Subscribe, Comment” animation that I like for my own channel and was curious if you’d be willing to share where you found yours?
Hello Cory! Thank you so much for joining us! :) Try Envato Elements, Motion Array, or Artlist. Lots of great free templates. Even better templates if you get their paid version, of course :) lol.
Good fishing at haulover canal and mosquito lagoon, good shrimping at oak Hill
Thank you John! We loved this whole area! When we get back, I am sure Bob would love to pull out his fishing gear :) Next time we can slow down a bit
Nice to see halifax marina again! Keep on cruising!
Thank you so much Mason! We appreciate your support! :)

Thank you so much! We were just blown away by all the wildlife! I want to go back and anchor for a week! :) Thank you for joining us!
Awesome video! Nature's finest with the dolphins and manatees! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! We were excited to finally get them on camera! :) Such a beautiful area! We are going back, and want to anchor out and stay a while!
@cruisingandromeda Good morning. I always wanted to ask, how do you detail and wax that big beautiful boat!?
Good morning! We had it waxed in Orange Beach before we left. I haven't done it myself yet.. She is HUGE when you are cleaning her! I may try myself this winter when she is stored. I will let you know. :)

Thank you so much Steve! Andromeda is taking great care of us! Thank you for sticking with us! :)

HAHAHA! They just loved Ollie! I need to put an Ollie cam on his collar! :) Hmmmm.......:)
@@cruisingandromeda Now that would make some great YT Shorts!

Yes it was! Thank you Dr. John! :)

Hello from Alabama! Enjoy your videos so much!
Thank you so much Jeanne! We loved our stay in Alabama! We met the best people :)
We have a Class A Motorhome and are headed to Perdido Key and Orange Beach to camp on the inter coastal right at the bridge! I’m sure y’all went right by there leaving after your repairs from the accident. We’ll be there 2 weeks and will get to see the Blue Angels Homecoming!
Oh I wish we could be back down there! That sounds incredible :)
I live in the area and the Chart House is my favorite place for birthdays. You missed showing the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse, very iconic. Wanted to see which way you took around dissappearing island there at the inlet. Safe travels.
Hello Tim! Our navionics took us on the western route which bypassed the inlet. Thank you so much for joining us :)
Nice to finally meet internet friends. Usually 😅 In this instance, yes. Beautiful camera work. GStay safe.
Hahaha! Thank you so much David!! :)

Hello! We absolutely LOVED Alabama! We are definitely going back :) No hard feelings from us! Thank you for your support!

My 6-foot draft trawler plowed through part of that canal. What's the draft on your boat? Mine had a full length stainless steel skid plate.

Hello! We crossed our wake this past June 2024! We are already planning on how to get back asap! Thank you for joining us :)
