Great Loop
 

Anyone in The Villages traveled the Great Loop?
Anyone planning to travel the Great Loop?

Huh?

Not a boater, eh?

Come on.. Two seconds to Google.
What is the Great Loop?

I thought it was the name of a golf cart route around the villages.

LOL.. That would be a stretch to put in the Travel Section. Maybe The Villages Mini-Loop. lol

Great loop
 

Did the trip in 2001 took 7 months and loved it. Left from Englewood Fl and returned there. After the trip sold the boat and started RVing and still doing it.

About 800 loopers are on the loop at any given time. Our neighbor left 4 weeks ago. You travel counter clockwise. There is a web site. Google great loop. It's a big deal. Another neighbor spent last winter in Florida and returned in August.

I've followed the travels of Sam and Rev on YouTube ("What Yacht To Do") and have really enjoyed their series. They are actually on the second round. I was fascinated to learn that he was a U2 pilot in the Air Force.. So if anyone wants to know what the Great Loop is all about, check out "What Yacht To Do" on YouTube. If you like boating, you will probably find this really interesting.

Some friends of mine moved from The Villages to Georgia, bought a boat and did it or are doing it now.

That is definitely on my bucket list, especially since I’m from chicago. I have many friends that have and they enjoyed every day of it!! I love that there is a good app now where your friends can track you!! Go for it if you can!!!!

Never heard of the Great Loop….
The great god google has now edumacated me. 😃

:laugh:

I to. I though it was the loop over the new bridges. By the way I heard the toll booths are going in at the bridges.:D :22yikes:

We did the loop in 2007. Great trip! Wonderful history & geography lesson and you meet many wonderful people. There are at least 3 other couples in The Villages that did it in 2007. Always willing to talk about it.
