    I'm a retired outdoors person and did my boating on the great lakes. Now I'm stuck in my apt. because of health issues. You guys took me on an awesome trip. Than you very much for sharing an awesome video.

      It is great to watch such great people whom appreciate the magnitude of what their doing accomplish this. Vicarious living. I have yet to get on the Lakes, and I live a couple hours from Duluth. Not an amateur sailors place is my thought.

      @@heatmoon Everyone on the lakes was an amateur at one time. Just take a course on pleasure boating, keep an eye on weather forecasts and don't play a fool and taking stupid chances and you'll be fine. Just mentions that tells me you're smart enough to take in the most beautiful boating in the world.

      @@lexluthor6497 Thankyou. i'm still ,mobile, but old age is taking it's toll lol. But I have a persistant son who grabs me by one ear and sticks me on his boat. I do have to admit, I don't put up any resistance. lol

    My father did the NW passage Route 5 heading west in 2011 #146. I was supposed to go in 2009 when they had planned a west to east passage but the boat had issues in Japan and missed the window to get there intime. I was not able to join in 2011. Its always been a dream. He has photos of polar bears swimming past the boat. It was very nice to watch this video.

    As a catamaran sailor who was mainly sailing in moderate water (Mediterranean Sea), I followed this movie with excitement. THAT is demanding sailing and adventure. Compliments from the entire crew. Such videos are rarely seen in this quality. Stay well all of you and best regards from Austria!

    You guys aren’t that young but very young at heart and spirit. Wish I could be there with you. I’m from down under Melbourne Australia, now retired, ( have no choice), was sailing on the big boats (tankers) and had the opportunity to work on a P&O research vessel, for three years, carrying men/women and material to the Australian stations. Of late Ihave plunged into this very subject and the high Arctic north. God willing that’s on my bucket list. Svalbard, Elsmere island and why not the drifting top of the world. But I’m racing with time, as I’m old enough. My God will. Wish I could say high to you guys over the phone. Well take care and God bless. Regards, Percy.

Not only that but your great photography and self deprecating and interesting commentary brought it all to life. Can't wait to see the return trip when COVID allows.
