Traveling America's Great Loop
Aboard our 34′ Trawler, Pivōt, we are traveling the 6,000 mile journey around the Great Loop. The journey can take anywhere from 12 months to 4 years and we officially started in 2021! Haven’t heard about it? Check it what it is here .
HELLO.
WE'RE JEN & ELLIOT
High school sweethearts who traveled around the world for a year before facing lockdown in India for 5 months. After returning home, we decided to explore our own backyard and buy a 34′ Trawler to explore America’s Great Loop.
WORLD TRAVELS
Our first year of full-time travel was spent exploring 7 countries in South America, New Zealand, Australia, and India before facing a national lockdown. You can find our experiences on our YouTube channel.
Jennifer writes a weekly blog published every Monday about navigating the waters as a young boating couple with minimal experience and the obstacles we face.
Elliot writes about being a software engineer as a digital nomad on the water. His blogs are available every Friday!
TRAVEL RESOURCES
We provide resources for other full-time travelers, people interested in boating for the first time, and information about America’s Great Loop.
