Do what yoiu do friend. I enjoy seeing and hearing about Canada waterways - I ride in NC, so I like seeing and hearing about other locations. Keep it up!
another great video Yukon Bob! You should post a short video about your past and your years of reporting, and how you got into jetskiing. I think it would be very interesting
Hi Bob! The content and quality of your videos is excellent and the length is perfect. I greatly look forward to seeing each new adventure. I'm 70 years old and purchased and rode my first ever PWC - a SeaDoo GTX - late last summer. I enjoy all the great tips and reviews which form part of your videos, and look to learn something with each one, as well as to enjoy the beautiful scenery. You recently did a test of your extendable paddle, and have reviewed your latest SeaDoo, provided maintenance tips, explained how you handled the occasional issue (rope in the intake), provided drone information and I like to see how you tie up your PWC, what fenders you use, riding tips for rougher water, safety gear you use......basically anything that makes me more confident in using my SeaDoo safely and enjoying the life. Thanks for all you do, and please continue with these great videos. I live in the 1000 Islands area so adventures in eastern Ontario particularly appeal to me.
Hi Bob, responding to your ask regarding your length etc. of your videos. Please don’t change a thing, this channel, you, and your videos are absolutely incredible! All the best, Andrew
Great videos Bob! Love the content and your narration. Your videos are very interesting and highlight the natural beauty of Ontario lakes. I think you could make the videos longer as they are so enjoyable to watch. Like other viewers, I also live vicariously through your weekly adventures, which I look forward to at the end of every weekend. Your narration is terrific and is complimented perfectly by your drone shots and peaceful music. I really love your videos! Please keep them coming!
I watch every second. The length of the video is fine. I love seeing the lakes and your adventures. I like seeing all the different houses, jetties, boats and the surrounding area.. I like seeing the pubs, bars etc. Plus your a good bloke and your communication of what your doing etc is great. Your doing a good job.
The last time I was in Canada, I was 12. Now 66, I love the videos and the guided tours you are supplying. Hopefully, I will be able to drag my seadoo up there and explore.
Always great videos, around the 30 minute mark is perfect..... Next time your on Lake Vernon, should head up the Big East River to Arrowhead Provincial Park. Really nice ride and all sand up to a place called the Big Bend.
Don’t change anything. Narrating as you go is helpful, helps with knowing where you are. As far as paddles go? I keep one on board as an insurance. Yes it takes a bit to move it and you have switch paddling on each side to move straight, but us better than nothing. Describing the areas. Great video. Love watching them. Keep them coming.
Your videos are great I have a boat and use your videos to get info on boat launches and what the lakes are like. Hey Bob love the overnight camping do more of those Georgian Bay is beautiful
I think you have a good mixture of all elements to your videos. Love the exploring, like seeing the ski from drone, cool camera angles. I watch every video all the way through. I think a cool element to add would be camping from the ski.
I actually usually get almost 30 minutes into the videos, i enjoy the commentary actually and just enjoy coming for the ride, you pointing out things as u ride and some nice drone shots etc.
want to add that i watch every minute, i think 30 min is perfect I think you have a perfect mix of talking and scenery. you're doing a great job, i like the way it is.
Love the videos Bob. We just did a trip from Penetanguishene to Parry sound the other day and was phenomenal. The second day we rode into the Trent Severn and did the big chute. 6 machines in total. Stopped at Henry’s on Frying Pan island along the way to Parry Sound. Incredible ride. Lake was very calm and flat. Keep the long videos coming.
Keep doing what ever you like, I think new lakes better than repeats but that's just me. I have been in most of the lakes you ride, I highly recommend Charleston lake North East of Kingston and thex1000 islands.
I wouldn't know what to change Bob,. They're lovely videos. I really enjoy the combo of tech details with stunning visuals and music. I always watch from beginning to end. Interesting shot of the "deadhead" log. I wonder how much of a hazard they are when you're moving fast.
You do great! All around! great video presence/ personality. I’m a retired Seadoo enthusiast as well! Consider spending some time explaining the Garmin/Navionics setup. update us with your thoughts on the catch can and the sponson install. And go over all your riding accessories. I liked the paddle segment! 😊😊😊😊
I have really enjoyed your trips , not long at all. I am looking forward to get out and explore some of these lakes in eastern Ontario. I just purchased am GTX 300 myself
Hi Bob....I just wanted to say, I love your videos, and yes I don't mind you talking in your video's and yes when your somewhere and you notice how quiet, it is nice that you pause and let us hear...I enjoy your long videos more then the short ones, but I well take what I get...thanks a bunch for postjng
I watch all your videos from start to finish never bored with the length I'm envious about the fact you have a seadoo I have a jetboat at the cottage but keep up with the presentations always appreciate it
Your videos are great. I do like the commentary. There are too many videos from others that show scenery and no context. Also, I like waking up Sunday morning and a seeing a new location. Keep them coming.
The length of your video is perfectly fine.. more to see.. we love your videos and we watch them as our morning coffee routine 😊.. hope you get back out to Tobermory this season. The water reminds me of back home in ABACO Bahamas. Hubby hopes to ride alongside you one day. 💐💐
Hey Bob, Great job overall. For me, I would enjoy more of the time of the videos on the scenery with your voice in the background doing the narration, in order to see more of the sights. So maybe a little less time of looking at you while you talk about the location and maybe more of the location? But again, you're doing a great job. I really enjoy your adventures. Thank you.
Videos are great. I love watching them. Like the history and storytelling. Drone shots are really good as well. Could stand to see more drone videos. Would try to keep videos less than 30 minutes but with you narrating it’s enjoyable. Would also be good to have a map at the outset of where you are starting as I tend to pull up Google maps to follow along.
Greetings from lake of bays thanks for the presentation and huntsville has some interesting landmarks but I'm currently at home in Oakville with my parents back to the area soon ttfn
I’ve been watching the videos for a few years. The content is great. What would be interesting is to learn about the other Seadoo Tours guys experience of their Seadoo machines.
I live in Muskoka and considering investing in a SeaDoo and you are motivating me to make the investment..... love your video's. Thanks and keep em coming!
@@salesman61 I should be getting a commission lol. It can get you into some really beautiful places. It’s easy to use quick and easy to move around. Costly to run though as those that have superchargers are thirsty. Good luck.
Seen some guys on TH-cam trying out propellers found on amazon attached to a hand drill and it works ok as a paddle replacement. I want to try it out with a larger battery like you find on an ebike.
Great videos Bob. When jetskiing alone and you experience mechanical issues in the middle of the lake, what options do you have if no other boats around to get Seadoo back to shore and ultimately back to the trailer? My wife and each have a Seadoo, so never out alone. Just curious.
Long videos are just fine. I wouldn’t even mind them being over thirty minutes. If I have one gripe, though, it’s that I’d prefer you to do more comprehensive tours of the lakes, highlighting the cottages and natural features. For example, Lake Vernon has a massive island known as Big Island, which would have made for a great drone capture. Said lake also has plenty of dramatic, rocky hills that line its northwestern edge. I lied, I actually have a second gripe. Both times that you’ve visited Peninsula Lake, you’ve only traversed - or at least filmed - the bay opposite the Deerhurst residences, leaving most of the lake unexplored. Any boat or jet ski ride on Pen Lake feels incomplete without visiting Wolf Bay, at its eastern edge. It is a really serene bay with three dramatic mountains, with the eponymous one having large outcroppings jutting out from the hillside; one of which is a fairly well-known lookout spot that people sometimes hike up to (see the Wikipedia page for Peninsula Lake to see a photo from said lookout). Additionally, here is some local history: the largest island on the lake (Hills Island) was named after Reverend Robert Norton Hill, who built his home on the island. “In 1867, the Reverend Robert Norton Hill, came to Muskoka to seek land for himself, his four sons and two daughters. He located 700 acres of good clay/loam soil on the shores of Peninsula Lake, east of Huntsville on what is now Highway 60. He blazed a Trail called Hill’s Trace (now Highway 60) and as the first pioneer in the district, he opened a Post Office in 1878 called “Hillside,” which later became the name of the community.” - Lake of Bays United Churches. If you can get your hands on a copy, there is an excellent book entitled, Penlake: Reflections on Peninsula Lake, which details the history of the lake, which has ties to American families in Pittsburgh and elsewhere. Next time you visit, while passing under the Canal Rd bridge (heading toward Peninsula Lake), there is a plaque mounted to a concrete foundation in the water that details the canal’s construction. Here is description from Wiki: “The canal was excavated in 1888 to facilitate access to Peninsula Lake by large steam ships. Before the canal was created the area consisted of a small stream and wetland.”
Another great video, Bob! Hope to have you come back down to my region, Kingston - 1000 islands, catch up a ride with you! My Navionics renews in August, but if it's that much, I highly doubt I will renew. Also, I've had to paddle an older GTX Limited 3-4 miles back to shore a few years ago. Yeah.....the paddle serves no real purpose other than taking up space. For a while and perhaps it still might be this way, but long form content was starting to trend instead of hypercutting and ADHD style editing. I try to keep my videos 15-20 minutes but I also tend to feature less dialogue and more scenery/riding footage.
Bob your videos are awesome .. we don’t need commentary on drone footage just get the shots… otherwise I’ve never wanted to come up north till I started watching you .. come visit lake mead we have a guest room for ya !!!
The fourth Lake, Mary's Lake. The Lake I spent the 1980's and 90's on. Port Sydney. Man you missed out on going there. A way better lake than those up in Huntsville. Rock sides, Islands with cottages on them, cliff jumps from Rocky Island across from the pier, the rapids you can swim in and slide down at the dam to the mouth of the Muskoka river... Who ever told you in Huntsville that there was nothing to see down there was full of B.S. It's the best lake in the area by far. Just so's you know.
Your video's are your style, which are varied and informative with great drone footage. I do wish though you would wear your wrist strap to your jetski key and promote safety to new users. You are alone most of the time and isolated . Do you carry a PLB on your person.
I am planning to purchase a seadoo this coming 2025. My intentions are to discover the lakes in ontario. Can you recommend what machine I should purchase and GPS? Thanks Patrick
@@patrickgamache9935 lots of variables but I would look at GTX 230 or Explorer 230. Both machines have lots of power and are suited for touring. Explorer comes with a Garmin gps.

Hi Bob!
The length of your videos are perfect, especially when you're doing adventures - you want to show everything, and I enjoy seeing it all.
Beautiful video Bob, the scenery and commentary are awesome, thankyou 💙
