    Man, your camera work all but triggered my vertigo. Please slow down and pick your shots sans the wild camera swings. The subject is really interesting. Ease up on the camera and let the sites do the work..

    Thank for sharing. We are heading the opposite way down this year. Would love to have a drink with you if you are around before we leave. We are in port colborne for the next week ish before we take our mast down and join in the cruising fun.

    How long did it take to do the flight of locks?

    • @LadyKSailing
      @LadyKSailing  5 лет назад +1

      Those five didn;t take too long. Maybe two hours. It depends a lot on how quick the locks open and sometimes you have to wait here and there.

    • @mckibbonbill
      @mckibbonbill 5 лет назад

      Ok, I thought maybe all day..

  • @SailingPauHana
    @SailingPauHana 5 лет назад +2

    We found that the most stressful thing in the Erie Canal was worrying about hitting the tip of either end of our mast on the lock wall. We hung over 8-10 feet on either end.

  • @jlue7704

    I love watching your videos but you may consider lowering your Patreon fee to $2 and putting the pretty lady in more of the videos. I bet that you could double the revenue. Good luck.

    • @LadyKSailing
      @LadyKSailing  5 лет назад +1

      Hey thanks. Patreon allows any custom number someone would want to use. It doesn't have to be one of the premade options. Also I don;t do click bait. I find it distasteful.

    Really enjoyed that you included a bit of an overview and canal history. Speed of video was fine for me. I would be interested to learn more about the towns along the way. Thanks for making the video. Lady K is the best!

    • @mikebarron5805
      @mikebarron5805 5 лет назад +1

      I'll second Jim's comment and add that locks are locks, Once your inside on the bottom they are pretty much the same. I'd like to see more wide angle shots or pans of the areas between the locks and a pan of the scenery at the top.
      👍👍

  • @marilumurphy634
    @marilumurphy634 5 лет назад +1

    Hi Tim, If you could slow down even just one lock so people can see the turbulence that going up in the lock causes. I found going up or rising waters in the lock , was much more difficult in holding the boat away from the wall, more turbulence than going down or the water in the lock lowering.

    • @LadyKSailing
      @LadyKSailing  5 лет назад

      Can do, I agree completely. It can get very turbulent. Some of the later locks I filmed that so I will find that footage soon

  • @stephenfleming7918
    @stephenfleming7918 5 лет назад +1

    Nice video. If I’d had known when you were in Waterford I would have brought you guys dinner. There is a free wall to tie up to right above the Amsterdam lock. Has power and a nice Bar and restaurant across the street. Stay there many times.

    Is it possible to do the locks solo . I am asking coz I am thinking about doing that . I cruise solo but do not have much experience with locks .Thanks

    • @LadyKSailing
      @LadyKSailing  5 лет назад +2

      You could if the boat were small and manageable. I could not do it on Lady K no. The current in the lock as it fills is far too strong.

    Excellent video today. Very informative for those wanting to take this path. Are there any costs associated with traveling through the locks ? Best wishes.

    • @SailingPauHana
      @SailingPauHana 5 лет назад +1

      Thomas Cole there is a pass that you must buy. 1 week, 10 days or a season pass. That’s what it was in 2018. It’s like $150 for the whole thing.

    • @LadyKSailing
      @LadyKSailing  5 лет назад

      Hey it has been free since 2019 and what i hear is it will remain free until 2021.

    • @SailingPauHana
      @SailingPauHana 5 лет назад

      Lady K Sailing wow, that’s awesome. When we went through in 2018, it was free, but the fees were supposed to come back. That’s great news if it stays free. 👍👍

    Some of the canal wAS filled in to make highway, hence the Erie boulevard in Syracuse and part of the thruway. I grieve the loss of the canal. I now watch the British canal narrowboaters as they seem more connected to the old canal culture. I was born in Syracuse as was fatherwho worked on canals in his youth. He was born in 1903. He remembered. The Erie canal runs through my blood, in my dreams it still exists intact.

    Nice video Tim Hey when you ever go into town for dinner or whatever show a short clip of where you eat or have a few drinks and whether you like the place or not
    Looking forward to your next video
    As always thanks for the ride Kim

  • @mikeh720
    @mikeh720 5 лет назад +1

    curious why the boats waited until the last lock to stagger port-starboard on the lock walls to fit better. Thought for sure the guy behind you was going to lose his dinghy in the gates.

    • @LadyKSailing
      @LadyKSailing  5 лет назад +2

      Hey. Everyone likes to tie starboard mostly because most sailboats walk to starboard when you put them in reverse to stop. It makes port tie ups more difficult. The locks got smaller as we went so eventually we had to stagger.
