Le Voyage - Part Deux

So after fours winters (five?) of working on the boat we are finally going to do the Great Loop.

Here's what the the loop looks like:

We start on the west coat of Florida, go across the state, head up the east coast to New York. Up the Hudson, through the Erie Canal (or perhaps all the way to Montreal/Ottawa) through the great lakes, down to Chicago, down the Illinois river to the Mississippi, and then to the Gulf and back to Florida, See you back home in about 8-9 months, 6,000 miles. What can happen? Some folks take several years to do the trip (wintering their boat along the way) but we think this is doable. If not, we'll store it somewhere.

Here's the boat:

Look's some smart! Who? The boat or the captain?
