Originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, this married couple is embarking on their next great adventure. They’ve always been boat people and were excited when they had the opportunity to purchase their dream boat.
They are now traveling around the great loop at their own pace and enjoying every minute. They plan to create a podcast interviewing different captains they meet along the route, giving tips to future loopers, and sharing their stories with those interested in a similar route.
The Great Loop is a recognized waterway that follows major rivers, oceans, and currents. More importantly, it represents a journey and a great American adventure, similar to the Appalachian or Pacific Crest Hiking trails. Likewise, becoming a “Looper” is a membership into an exclusive community.
Loopers will experience challenges and successes along the route, meet new friends, and visit local cultures. The opportunities are endless, and it’s an unpredictable adventure that will generate limitless stories.
