I was wondering if anyone has done this on a jet ski and came across your video. I want to do it. I would be starting around st. Louis.

Trying to find the spot you maybe talk about a bilge pump? Did you install a bilge pump on your ski?

Got a question for you. I have the exact same motorhome. Where do you keep your spare tire? Mine is on the tow hitch in broad daylight on the back. Though it works, I’d sure like to have it in a compartment somewhere.

Is a tow tap needed for a closed loop cooling system?

Extremely well done. I've been thinking about this run myself from Myrtle Beach. You should find a way to sell that Excel spreadsheet as a template for other Loopers!

I carry a small vice grip with me that has flat teeth to crimp the water line. It serves the same purpose.

Hey! Didn’t realize we made this video. Great job !

the wine down catamaran does you tube videos also.

Just ran into a few of you guys in Pass Christian I believe he was heading to Mobile. I’ll be checking in y’all be safe and have a great trip 🤟🏽

Looks like a great adventure but I think i would want to have at least one more vessel with me

Should of done time lapse

What does that ride consist of cause I wanna leave out of Manistee and get to Mackinac island

Talk about your rig, the gas you brought etc. love your channel.

We sent you a message on Facebook about a possible short Sea Doo ride out your way!

I for one would like to see you trailer the sea doo up as far as possible on the Missouri river and mske a run down it seems to be an under severed river and given its historical importance would make for an interesting experience 😅

Thanks for the update, Mike. I'll have to simply continue to live vicariously through you... and you've already worn me out just listening to your ongoing saga. Getting my boat repaired and up and running from Ian, and new Ian roof goes on next week. Trying to get everything in order for the *next Cat 5. You (and family) welcome back here any time. KN

Hyde park marina (paul and the boys) say hello

Hi Michael- I wish I had caught on to your trip in real time. (I didn’t catch on until you made it to the New York City.) I could have helped you with our Florida weather in the summer. It is our rainy season. It rains everyday in the afternoon in Florida during the summer. So weather man says 50% rain everyday. Mornings and early afternoon you will see bad clouds but they usually don’t collide into a thunderstorm until The late afternoon. They just brew all day and look bad. 😮 **I am the one that contacted my boatfriend Kurt in Chicago- you docked in his extra slip @ Burnham Harbor, Chicago. I am reading your book and watching all the videos now. I did see that you mentioned Kurt, CJ, & I in the Chicago chapter! Thx for the shout out!😎 Such a great adventure!🥳 We live in Florida and boat the Great Lakes all summer. Our boat is in heated storage in Cheboygan, MI. Our itinerary this summer is Georgian bay- and south on the Trent- (opposite the loopers) then Lake Ontario to 1000 Islands, Montreal, and The Rideau Canal…. Only 1400 miles scheduled. A LOT less than the 6,700 miles you did in 3 months! Congratulations again! It is fun to read about your journey and follow the videos too. You can follow us on FB: Sunshine State of Mind-941 *I have a go-pro etc- but I have never made a video. I don’t really know how. 🤔 Have a Great day! PS. What is your next Y-Wait adventure? We are slowly bringing the boat back south- Summer 2025 3 months exploring the Chesapeake Bay Spring 2026 -Bahamas trip

Does it have to go there or can i add it further up on that hose?

You are crazy😂

Just picked up your book, looking forward to reading it. Don't think I would do good on the water, but have seriously thought of doing a RT.66 trip in like a bus conversion.

I’m blessed to ride like that all summer long! We’ll catch ya on the next go around. Mike L

Great spot to spend some time with the wife! And man it’s a good thing you had a seadoo for Huron! Smoothest riding skis out there by far! (In my opinion). I’ve seen some cool pics of people snowmobiling on that island too! Very cool village there from what I see in your video as well!

Not concerned about leaving ski in salt water over night? Without giving it a fresh water flush or putting on dry dock and rinsing? Just curious. This is where I’m up to in the book at the moment

How did you mount the tablet to the handle bars?

I wouldn't think too many Seadoo (Including myself) would be aware of the over 5mph water/engine/towing deal!.......I m glad i know now thankyou lol

Did you spend anytime in Georgian bay?

Love it!

nice run and noice ski! how are you able to see weather radar on your tablet?

So I just found you about a week ago, binged the entire trip now watching you follow up and prep videos. Just amazing thanks for sharing.

HAPPY LOOP Anniversary. Can’t wait to see your book

Why not just plug the hole from the outside ?

Looking forward to the book! I miss your videos and adventure!

Kinda wondered if you thought abour doing a shorter follow up trip up the Missouri river as far as possibe and maybe add a little history lesson to go along with it.

Mike, it was great catching up a couple weeks back. Looking forward to the book coming out. 😉

Well Mike... time flies, for sure. Been through two (count them... 2) hurricanes *since* you've passed through Florida, so your timing last year was fortuitous. Glad to see that Sea-Doo contributed something to that fix - though perhaps they could have done even more. Looking very much forward to that book. K-

I enjoyed keeping up with ur videos as u made the loop…..

Yeah~ you did unusual . farewell~ Michael- =)

You need to do the loop again maybe going in the opposite direction. Heck even in the same direction . I thoroughly enjoyed your videos on that. It was awesome going along on that virtual ride. I know it was expensive, time consuming, a challenge but it’s about my enjoyment and entertainment .😁😆😁

I watch all of your videos and enjoyed them immensely. Since your videos the wife and I acquired our C-Dory. We plan to do the loop in the future. God bless you Michael. 🙏

Awesome!

Wow!! I can't wait to watch this video journey on the waverunner!!! So glad I found your channel!!!

I worked a couple years at the marina on tavernier creek, creatively named tavernier creak marina, right by the us-1 bridge. Cool to see some familiar places. Good luck on your trip. Shame about the pwc rules, but as a former resident, I under stand their logic. Even if the implementation was lacking. It was due to recreational/rental craft ripping around where they shouldn't without regard to other boaters, and the environment. I can tell you from experience that boating on the weekends down there was like being surrounded by mosquitoes. You are operating your craft like a regular boat. There should be a little more distinction written in to the rules.
