America’s Great Loop Cruisers’ Association is an extremely active and involved organization supplying information and support for all member cruisers, not just active Loopers. Open their website, greatloop.org,  and get a taste of what membership is about.

The Great Loop is the continuous waterway that encompasses the eastern portion of North America including the Atlantic and Gulf Intracoastal Waterways, the Great Lakes, the Canadian Heritage Canals, and the inland rivers of America’s heartland.  

Our members range from experienced Loop cruisers to boaters in the midst of Looping; those planning on one day cruising the Great Loop to those simply exhilarated by the process of learning about the journey. Every level of interest is welcome, no restrictions or limitations! Whether you’re young or just young at heart, still working or retired, ready to travel full time or only every-so-often; whether you’ve got a powerboat, sailboat, trawler, rowboat or no boat; whether you are doing the Great Loop or dreaming, you’ll fit right in, come aboard!
