Re: ICW great loop infomation about timing

Can you? Probably yes. Should you? Probably no. There is lots to see and wonderful side trips to take on the Great Loop Route, and you may miss the whole point in doing the route by moving so fast. Instead, you could spend the hurricane season enjoying the loop's canals, the Great Lakes, and the inland rivers, then cruise Florida, The Bahamas, and the Caribbean next winter/spring, and spend the following hurricane season in Guatemala.

thank you for your answer
You right, and it is not my way to rush

I think
I will just go to NewYork
then down by the waterway

the great loop will be for another time
probably with a better boat for doing this , not a sailboat

thank you
