Hello everyone,
Although we don't run a trawler, we do run our 1967 Chris Craft Constellation at trawler speeds most of the time. We've owned and cared for this boat for 30 years, and have used it mostly on Georgian Bay, Lake Huron's North Channel and Lake Simcoe.
We have also spent time in the lovely Thousand Islands, and have traveled up to Ottawa then Montreal, Lake Champlain, the Erie Canal and sundry points between.
We are now planning to run the boat south this fall, likely as far as the Carolinas before putting it up for the winter.
We have found this site very informative and entertaining, and will soon be posting a new thread seeking advice on routes and how to prepare our boat and ourselves for this new adventure.
We look forward to meeting like-minded cruising folks and continuing to enjoy the forum.
All the Best,
Henri Aube, Penetanguishene, Ontario.
