Veteran Sherman as my 1st EUC. Why vs Electric Scooter or One Wheel?
Cruising Off Duty
Welcome to Cruising Off Duty. We are Craig and Janice. We love travelling and we love sailing, so we figure the best way to see the world is by sailboat. We presently have a 35' Beneteau Oceanis sloop that we sail out of Kingston, Ontario Canada, which is on Lake Ontario. We have a longer term plan, when we retire in a few years, to sell everything and buy a 40-50' Catamaran and circumnavigate the globe. Craig loves photography along with land based and drone videography and plans to document everything along our travels to share with the world through Youtube and other social media. For now, follow our channel as we show you the beauty of the Great Lakes and the 1000 Islands area of the St Lawrence River. You will also see the steps we take as start narrowing down the Catamaran we think will suit us best as we move closer to our goal of living full time on a sailboat and exploring the world. It should be a journey worth watching.

I bought a PEV (Personal Electric Vehicle) and it ended up being the Longest Range EUC (Electric Unicycle) on the market, the Veteran Sherman. Personal Electric Vehicles are the future of personal mobility and are the perfect way for boaters, RVers and travellers to go exploring on land. There are a lot of very good Personal Electric Vehicles on the market these days, so the decision as to which one would be best for me was difficult. I decided that for my use case the main features I wanted were long-range and the ability to explore off-road. Factoring in those use cases I believe the Veteran Sherman would best suit my needs. You may have different needs or not need the record setting range of the Sherman so you may come up with a different PEV as your best choice.
This video goes through the different options and how I came up with the Sherman as the best option for me. Watch and see if you agree with me. Comment below with what your thoughts are.
Usually, with my sailing videos, I wish all of you “Safe Cruising” at the end of each episode but riding a EUC comes with even more risks than sailing does. I plan to wear lots of safety gear when riding, to minimize my chance of injury, but perhaps there has never been a better time to wish me the same.
Safe Cruising!
Craig
Note: This is not a sponsored episode and I spent my own money and paid full price for this Veteran Sherman so my thoughts are unbiased.
I bought my EUC at Vancouver EUC. Tom at VanEUC runs a non-profit shop where his goal is to get more people involved in the EUC sport and wants to keep the prices down for Canadians. If you are thinking of buying a EUC, use this link to show him you were sponsored by me and you will receive a discount.
