Cheryll, Roam and I have returned home from our Triangle Loop trip. We trailered Roam, our R-25, from our condo in Michigan to Kingston, Ontario. From there we cruised along the Rideau Canal to Ottawa, then down the Ottawa River To Montreal. From there it was via the St. Lawrence River and Richelieu River to Lake Champlain. The Champlain, Erie and Oswego Canals took us to Lake Ontario and the 1000 Islands before returning to Kingston and then home. The 28-day journey covered 867 miles on flat, fresh water that was almost entirely well-protected. We transited 99 locks and did four international border crossings.

I'd recommend this trip to experienced boaters who are comfortable handling their boats in confined spaces. The locks require patience and capable crew. History buffs will enjoy the countless museums, parks and forts from the Revolutionary War, French and Indian War, and the War of 1812.
