I have been searching the world for the best places to boat, and I google mapped the Quebec area. It seems you can go from St Lawrence in the north all the way to Lake Ontario....It must be hundreds of miles. Is this possible or is it blocked? I scoped it out and it looks like the one of the longest runs ever.
Anybody know for sure?:confused:

Same guy is trying to get rid of it on EBay right now, @ a 80% loss but he'd be happy to lose the buck twentyfive...

Dont know much about Canada, but checking Nautical Navigational Charts will determine if your route is possible.

I'm confident it is possible to go from Quebec City in upper Canada, through the great lakes, and all the way to Asia in a birch bark canoe to trade furs.

You can travel from the Atlantic Ocean all the way to the western end of Lake Superior if you really want.
Forget looking around though because the best boating in the world is to be had amongst the 30,000 islands of Gerogian Bay, the unofficial 6th great lake. Sure its only soft 8 months of the year but unlike Havazoo or Loto, its not a barren desert puddle or a long skinny flooded ditch.
Clean, clear fresh water, excellent beaches, astounding natural scenery, well marked with aids to navigation and hundreds of miles around, the Bay as its locally known hosts thousands of boaters every summer.
Google Earth Georgian Bay or check out some of these pic links to see what I mean.

Georgian Bay is amazing but I think War Canoe is looking for the north west passage. Perhaps he's looking for a way to save time transporting goods between the Orient and Europe.

With the icebergs melting rapidly , by next year he could circumnavigate through the North Passage and land in Vancouver in no time :idea: :)
