Im 71 years old and have only ever travelled on Ferries. Needless to say I now want to get a Fleming and travel on some of your wonderful journeys. How completely compelling, both the journey and the filming / narration. I have spent quite a few hours watching these videos now and thoroughly enjoyed every minute, thank you.

THIS IS THE MOST WONDERFUL AND AMAZING TRAVEL DOCUMENTARY I HAVE EVER SEEN!. THANK YOU. - I watch all your Venture Boats trips (Aleutians, Alaska, British Columbia, Europe, Ireland, England, California, Idaho, New York). All videos are properly edited and perfectly presented. All landscapes, scenes, nature, blue sky, grey sky, deep blue sea make me feel so good. I enjoy watching all your videos (on my 72" flat screen TV - SONY) all time, every weekend from my home in Los Angeles. Even though I am not fortunate like you to circumnavigate the globe and travel on own boat, your sea journey and wonderful voyage videos have brought many delights and good feeling to me. We all ordinary people are grateful to you (Gratitude) for your generous and wonderful presentations. Thank you.

Many thanks for documenting such an amazing trans-American voyage from nearly the North Pole (Alaska) past Pacific Canada to the West Coast of the U.S.A. ...all the way towards South America....the unique Galapogos Islands....and then the inland waterways of the East Coast of the U.S.A. and on to the eastern provinces of Canada. Most people are so accustomed to the safety and comfort of land-travel on modern highways and the convenience and ultra-speed of air-travel nowadays that your perspectives from sea and river are fascinating.

[2] I lived several years in Canada, for example, and had no recollection of there being locks in the St. Lawrence River! This is the U.S.A.'s/Canada's equivalent of the world-famous Panama Canal! Very educational tour, thanks to you! Perhaps nobody that I know/knew ever travelled on the river and did not know about these features along its astonishing length. Most of us from Canada have only flown over it or driven beside it. As my grandparents lived many years in Lasalle, whenever we visited, my grandfather and I used to enjoy walking to the nearest part of the great river, where passersby fed the gulls and other birds and got a sense of nature amidst suburban development.

The Venture felt like a friend after the video, like I wanted to hug her. I know that sounds crazy, but she brought you safely through your trip.Of course, your crew deserves massive praise. I don't do water very well, so I held my breath now and then. You are all very brave. The videography was brilliant and the narration was perfection. I loved every minute of the two videos. Thank you so very much for the journey.

It is actually more accurate to refer to me as the builder rather than the buyer of the boat.
