Wendy & Hal share the story of their Great Loop adventure aboard their Grand Banks 42 Classic, Patriot. They'll tell why they chose the Grand Banks, what they did to prepare for the trip, their cruising preferences like how many miles they traveled per day and at what speed, and offer their best advice to future Loopers.

America's Great Loop Cruisers' Association offers information and inspiration for those actively cruising, planning for, or dreaming about an adventure on the Great Loop -- a 6,000 boat trip around the eastern part of North America. www.greatloop.org/joinus.
