    Woo hoo, Michelle and Steve , glad your both home safe and sound, and with some very interesting memories to tell the dogs! What an adventure of "breaking in" a new boat, fixing loose things and breakdowns, and navigating the bureaucracy! Thank you so much for including us all on this trip. We all managed to fit quite nicely on board!
    I love this little Diesel Duck, and I'm so glad you got the flying bridge version! I'm looking forward to seeing her navigating around the Canadian sounds and coastline in the future.
    Now, back to chainsaws, logs, precision cuts and making it up as you go along! Cheers from NZL, David. ❤🛥⚓🛂

    Michelle and Steve. You guys likely know Im a regular follower. This series of episodes was an incredible adventure for you, but what a wonderful adventure and experience it turned out for me! And I want to thank you guys for that. I could write a mile of content, but I have decided to just keep it short, because I know you guys are really busy. I cant close without saying how emotionally touched I was , when you guys got home to your dogs. My dogs are my kids now, since Im now an old man of 70. Im still dealing with my "dog" tears, as I finish my comments. Please let me close by saying that Michelle and Steve are some of the coolest people on this planet. Id like to wish you both a lifetime of peace, harmony, prosperity, and happiness. More than anything, please please continue the life and experiences that you guys share with us.

    Michy, it is so good to see you reunited with your bestie beasties! Lenny looks so good and really happy to have you both home. Clyde seemed to not believe it was really you and not a dream! What an adventure for you and Steve with more to look forward to in the fall, on that beautiful Pelagic, but selfishly I'm glad you are back safe in your own forest with you furry family and l look forward to seeing what creative projects you tackle next.

      Clyde has been quite happy these days, so I definitely think he missed us. He’s had an extra spring in his step on out walks, which he tolerates wondering what it is we’re doing (rather than him out on his own ‘hunting’) 😂

    Great series of a thrilling adventure you posted. I had lived in HK for 14 years, Macau for 8 years and Canada for 41 years, I have also been to Taiwan and Guangzhou. When watching your series, I have more in-depth understanding of your situation and be able to enjoy the videos even more. Thanks for sharing. By the way, the boat is so beautiful ! Glad to see both you and Steve came home safely.

    MG, this has been an amazing addition to your channel, and I can't thank you enough for sharing it with everyone. You and Steve both have hearts of gold, and your play time with Little Louie, was such a great treat for him. He'll never forget you.

    Another awesome adventure, hopefully captain Steve could show us more about that awesome boat, I bet it's rated for some real rugged conditions. It always tugs at my heart strings when making and leaving new little furry friends and being reignited with our little homeys when missions has been achieved, being able to capture these moments are always priceless. Thanks

    Hi Steve and Michy, I was so looking forward to your trip to Japan, my ship's homeport was Yokosuka and I was so looking forward to you guys visiting Japan. I love Japan, it is a beautiful country as well as the people. Taipei was another favorite place of mine. That was really nice of Michy to visit the dog at the CG station and play with it. I do hope you did some videoing in Japan and will show us at a later date. Thanks so much for taking us along on your journey home. By the way, Happy Canada.
