What's The Great Loop?
What is the GREAT LOOP?
The Great Loop is a continuous waterway that recreational mariners can travel that includes part of the Atlantic Ocean, American Gulf Intracoastal Waterways, the American Great Lakes, Canadian Heritage Canals, and the inland rivers of America's heartland. Anyone who completes the journey is then named an official "LOOPER" Who doesn't want to be named a looper?

A distinction is you have to cross your wake. So no matter which way you go - N0rth or South to officially complete "The Loop" a vessel must cross their wake or point where they started.
Depending on the exact path you take the journey is about 6,000 miles.
And only about 200 vessels travel the loop every year.
So we are super excited to take this journey!
