Story of our Loop-Malcolm & Rachel, Mainship 390

If you enjoyed our episode a few weeks back on "Looper Lore", then you'll appreciate this episode as we bust some Great Loop myths. Kim & Ted from Pony are our guests as we explore some of those Looper sayings, or pieces of advice, that you might want to reconsider when planning and cruising your own Great Loop adventure.

When Foster & Susan did the Great Loop, they decided not to follow the pack to the "usual" Looper stops. Instead, they asked 7 questions to locals around the Loop that helped them find the hidden gems, the waterways less traveled, and ultimately, make the Loop their own. Join us this week as Foster & Susan share their 7 questions that led them to the best food, drinks, places, and sights along the Great Loop route.

Most Loopers have their favorite sayings that apply to the Great Loop. This week, we share some of the best "Looper Lore" that you'll hear during docktails and other discussions on the Great Loop. Tsali and Jacque Bentley, Platinum Loopers and AGLCA award winners, are my guests this week as we reveal and explain some of the favorite Looper Lore submitted by our members.

Looping in segments has become more popular in recent years as Loopers look to do the Great Loop in a way that works for them. But how do you decide how long each of your segments should be? How do you find a place to leave your boat while returning home between segments? What do you do to prepare your boat before you leave for a period of time? This week's episode of the Great Loop Radio podcast answers these questions and more. Join us as new Gold Loopers, Dick & Louise aboard Nine Lives, share the details of how they Looped in segments over multiple years.
