- In this episode we are entering a new region of the Trent-Severn Waterway and are heading through 6 locks in 20 miles...
It's a beautiful day filled with one of a kind lift locks, a bit of drama with shallow sections and markers switching, and ending with a fantastic view over the largest body of water on the Trent-Severn - Lake Simcoe.
Thanks for watching!
Cheers from the Loop,
Jennifer and Elliot

ABOUT US
Hi! We are high school sweethearts from Atlanta, Georgia who decided to take a year off to travel around the world. Together we decided to create vlogs for our journey as a fun way to remember it. On September 15, 2019, we left Atlanta with 3 bags, 2 one-way tickets, and 1 goal of traveling for a whole year. Little did we know, 6 months later we would find ourselves in a nationwide lockdown in India. After spending 5 months in India, we came back to the United States and decided to purchase a 34’ Trawler, dive headfirst into boat life, and kick-off America’s Great Loop.
The good, the bad, the ugly - and most importantly, the real and real funny. We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.”, just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem.
Thank you for following us along our journey!

Thank you for watching! This video was filmed on July 30th.
My husband and I have been following your Journey since you started the loop. Your videos just keep getting better and I love your enthusiasm. We keep our boat at Big Chute and wished we would have met you both when you passed through. We just love Ollie as well 💕
Love watching you guys over watched all your loop❤s
I’m impressed with some of the cool engineering you have had the opportunity to view? And in action. Great trip
Another amazing video, it’s great seeing you guys travel through our amazing Trent waterways. We take it for granted. Can’t wait for the next video!!!
Hi again. The reason the locks are a smoother ride from Kirkfield liftlock on down, is because you are now going down so there isn't any turbulence inside the lock chamber. The water is going out not in.
Glad you enjoyed our mini loop in Canada 🇨🇦. Done many miles on the Trent the people the sights cant be beat ! Pretty good fishing too !!
Hi, I have been away all summer so catching up on your travels. I grew up in the Beaverton /Talbot River/Lake Simcoe area so I am really enjpoying this segment. Thank you so much.
Beautiful stretch!
That is sooo kool
Really loving your adventures on the Great Loop !! Thank you !!
Looking good 👌
Here are my favorite boaters. I finally figured out why I enjoy your videos so much. The way you describe everything almost makes me feel like I'm back out there with you. Your personalities are awesome and are always up, even when having problems. You appreciate the little things and describe them. For anyone who had just started boating, your videos would be an awesome education and would recommend them to everyone. Every lock you have a description if there is a change. Simcoe can be a problem at times. Whips up quick. I can't wait for your videos when you get past Lake Couchiching. If you thought that part of the Trent was beautiful, the next you will think your in heaven. That's what I thought when I lived there.
You guys are such a joy to watch. And I’m a little bit envious as I live so close but have not been on the Trent in yrs. Have a sailboat so beautiful Georgian Bay is my playground. I look forward to your time on the Bay when you get there. Thanks! 🇨🇦
We live and boat on Lake Simcoe. We've cruised from Simcoe to Buckhorn several times in our 26 foot Doral Citation cruiser, and recently from Trenton to Lake Simcoe in our 32 foot ,Carver . It's a beautiful trip.
Can't wait to see your reaction to Big Chute lock... it has fascinated my dad for years... a feat of engineering
I'm glad you rescued the spider. My dad taught us to do the same thing since it's a beneficial insect. I probably would have put him on the wall and not the deck, though. 😀 Super impressed by your black bean burgers! I can't ever get mine to stay together like that.
A-so cool they left lock controls manual/original.
You folks are following the same route My wife and I would take every summer for a few years back in the late 60's early 70's and in those days - imagine the difference in era - it was common for some of the lock keepers in the dog days of summer to hold you to ransom for a cold brew from the fridge. LOL. Those were different times when we weren't so all up-tight all the time. I remember well the Couchiching narrows being the most expensive fuel-up ever. Lake Simcoe has the dubious honour of being subject to sudden squalls coming out of nowhere in a heartbeat and with just compasses being the standard in those days we had more than one frightening experience while crossing that lake. The marine railroad at Severn Falls is another exciting event until you've done it once.
Really shallow through there!! With our 46'vessel we made sure we ran our fuel tanks under 1/3rd through this area! Nice call out to the lock masters. They are great folks
