useful information on the Great Loop

on or leave you hanging, only to ask you for a fee to continue.
We give you the accurate facts of what you really need to know. We don't trying to empress anyone with our
accomplishments, our looks, our lifestyle, or even our vessel. In fact, we live a very frugal cruising lifestyle,
and cruise the Great Loop while living aboard in a very frugal vessel.
We have no dues, and we don't try to collect money from you so that we (instead of you) can go cruising. In
fact, we don't try to sell you anything.
