Family and friends ask us "what is Americas Great Loop?" "The Great Loop is a continuous waterway that recreational mariners can travel that includes part of the Atlantic, Gulf Intracoastal Waterways, the Great Lakes, Canadian Heritage Canals, and the inland rivers of America's heartland. Anyone who completes the journey is then named an official ' Looper '." Ocean Service NOAA

If you want to hear about AGLCA click the link below and the director Julie does a great job at explaining the journey. It inspired us and hope it does you also! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlv2RNE9eLk We will begin our Great Loop from Scottsboro Alabama, where we bought Little Bit More and have been on a 3-month refit to get her Loop ready.
