America's Great Loop With our boat "Little Bit More"

Sunday, October 23, 2022 to Saturday October 30, 2022 We finally got off the dock after several months of preparing our Rossbourough 246 for the 6000-mile journey called America's Great Loop.  We were lucky to have made so many new friends that helped us outfit our new home on the water.  Because we left so late in the afternoon the first night we only made it out of the channel and 'dropped the hook'.  It was so nice to watch the sunset from Little Bit More, the same sunsets we'd been enjoying while we lived at the dock!   Goose Pond Marina to  Guntersville Marina The first lock of our journey was the Guntersville Dam, with beautiful weather and no delays. We stayed at Guntersville Marina for a couple of nights while Scott completed installing our lithium/solar solution for house power.  This is a nice marina with clean showers and free laundry.

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. Our route will take us to Decatur Alabama and south on the Tom Bigby Waterway to Mobile Alabama. Great Loop Map
