Skipper Bob's book identifies the hazards that you will encounter.
The only restriction could be the bridge draft below Lake Champlain.  
Check it out.

Pot 'O' Gold did that trip in 2008, the Ottawa River, Rideau, and
Trent Severn.  Its an absolutely wonderful trip, no pitfalls at all,
other than a lot of "gunk" in the water, but thats true in that whole
area.  Keep your eye on the raw water filters, make sure you have
"Skipper Bob Cruising Guide" and have a ball.
