We completed the Champlain Triangle (small loop) from our home in Orange Park, FL (Jax area) this past summer (2007). We really enjoyed our cruise and realized what a small world it is. Our paths crossed with the Tuschicks while we in Albany and they were headed for New York as part of the PDQ convoy. Tom Clare "Sea Knight" greeted us as we reached the top of Erie Canal Lock 11 and invited us to join them overnight at the Lock 11 Yacht Club and share a movie with them. We visited with Fred and Lori Phelps, "Nomad" in Deltaville, on our last night on the Chesapeake Bay. We had borrowed navigation maps for the Hudson River and Canada from the Phelps and we were looking for them but we didn't have any kind of detailed itinerary for us or them. We also had conversations with other Camano owners that we saw at bridges or fuel docks. It's a very nice community!
