The American Great Loop Association is comprised of a niche group of individuals with a passion for cruising the Great Loop.

By definition, The Great Loop is the circumnavigation of Eastern North America by water also referred to as America's Great Loop and the Great Circle Route, the trip varies from 5,000 to 7,500 miles (8,000 to 12,000 km) depending on route options and detours taken. It has been said to be the world's safest and most scenic continuous waterway. It is the boating adventure of a lifetime that will take you to shorelines from the Florida Keys to Canada. On the trip you will pass the Statue of Liberty by way of the Hudson River, journey through the Historic Erie Canal, across downtown Chicago, down inland rivers of the heartlands and finally to the Gulf of Mexico.

That looks like a great trip!

I guess I should have bought a bigger kayak...
