Our Plan
Our trip will take us on a portion of the Great Loop from Westbrook, CT to Mackinac Island, MI via western Long Island Sound, New York City’s East River, the Hudson River, the Eastern Erie and Oswego Canals, Canada’s Thousand Islands, the Trent Severn Waterway, Georgian Bay and the North Channel. We will then turn around and return to Westbrook in a largely reverse route. After it’s all said and done we will have sailed over 1,500 miles going through 154 locks (about 77 locks, each direction). Our only deadline is to be off Lake Ontario and heading back to our home port in CT by Labor Day, 2025. This gives us many options for multiple day stays in locations of our choice.
