Great documentary Bill. Very inspiring. I have bought an old houseboat, which I am renovating. Then the exploration begins. Should have done this years ago.

[@bill-gray]

Hi Glenn, Thank you very much for the nice message and watching. Definitely do the trip. it is beautiful. It will be amazing on your house boat when you get it done. :) Have a great day, and keep in touch when you go on your adventure.

Best video, how long ago did you do this trip?

[@bill-gray]

Hi Dave, thank you very much for watching and the nice comment. I filmed it all about 15 years ago. Have a great day.

[@davidstokes8441]

Try Devlin's Pound, also in SA.

[@bill-gray]

hi mate, thank you for comment, and watching. Yes I cover Devlin's pound. It is very interesting alright :)

[@JayneBrumby]

Have you got a favourite place from the whole trip?

[@bill-gray]

Not really, every corner was different and beautiful. But probably the areas with the high cliffs.

[@DannyVan-rp1lj]

You have done a great job and should be proud of your achievment I enjoyed all of it I recently did 37 days down the river , no one really can fully get it till they do it

[@bill-gray]

Hi Danny, thank you very much for watching and the nice comment. I really appreciate it. You are very correct, you cant really imagine in until you do it. Your 37 days would have being amazing. What sort of boat did you use for your trip?

[@benrobertson2277]

Hey guys, love the video. I'm going to go from Albury to Goolwa in my 70s cruise craft. How long would you suggest I need to do the trip?

[@bill-gray]

@@benrobertson2277 Hi, that would be a great trip. Well done. It all depends on how fast you go, and how much you stop. But The whole trip took us 6 weeks if that is any help at all. Thanks for watching and the great question. :)

Good video mate

Hi Brendan, Hi mate thank you very much for your great comment. It made my day. Have a great day yourself. Thanks for watching.

I’ve enjoyed this series ❤

@@JayneBrumby thank you very much.

@@bill-gray Not a problem mate, looking out for your next videos!

[@rodericksmith8218]

I've covered 2250 km, from the top of Lake Hume to the mouth, in a cruiser with shallower draft than yours. Lots of kayaks and tinnies have started at Bringenbrong, and many have their journey up on youtube. Just a few Olympic-standard whitewater kayakers have started at Tom Groggin.

[@bill-gray]

Hi Roger, thats great. We done. How long did the trip take you? Thanks for watching and have a great day.

[@davidmilledge221]

[@bill-gray]

Hi dave, thank you very much for the nice comment. Yes it was an amazing trip. At the time I could have turned around and done it again in the reverse order. Thats how much I enjoyed the scenery. Thanks again.

[@davidstokes8441]

Overland Corner is in South Australia not New South Wales.

[@bill-gray]

Thanks for watching and the correction. Have a nice day :)

[@daviddanne5259]

G’day Bill, what a great trip you must have had. Thanks for all the information about the different buildings, properties and areas along the Murray River. I’m thinking of spending a month or two or maybe three on my boat, on the river and just taking my time, probably going to Swan Hill and back to Echuca. Thanks for the video.

[@bill-gray]

Hi David, thanks very much for the kind words and for watching. It is so beautiful and you should defiantly do the trip. Every corner and bend is just amazing. I'm sure you will love it. Please let me know when you do and post some photos. What sort of boat would you be going in?

[@daviddanne5259]

@@bill-gray Hi Bill, you’re very welcome. I’m sure the scenery is beautiful and yes I will definitely be doing the trip. Yes I will let you know when I go. I mite even consider going to Mildura and back to Echuca. I’ll be in a Swift Craft Sportsman ( 23 foot half cabin fibre glass early 80’s boat ) with a Mercury 225hp Optimax ( oil injected 2 stroke ) and I’m about to purchase a Mercury 15hp 4 stroke to do most of the cruising, instead of putting unnecessary hours on the big motor.

[@bill-gray]

@@daviddanne5259 Perfect, that will be a great trip, and yer the small 15 four stroke will be perfect for the slow trip, good idea. :)
