300 Mile Trek

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Open-water rowing : One Thread

I'm planning a trip the length of Lake Champlain onto the Saint Lawrence to Quebec City. There will be three of us rowing at one time. Where can I get plans that I can scale up? How long will it take? We would like to do it in one continuous shot, sleeping in shifts during the night.

I bet if you contact the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum in Vergennes Vermont 802 475 2022 you will get all the information you need and possibly some company. Good luck. I have a friend who rowed up there from Burlington. I would put you in touch with him, but I don't know where he is . What I recall of his trip was that he had a good time but a little trouble in some of the tighter spots, with large boat wakes bouncing off the walls of the canals. good luck, Ivan.
