Freebird on The Great Loop
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 19 ต.ค. 2008
Freebird is a 2006 56 Carver Voyager and our home port is in Chattanooga, TN. In May of 2024 We started our second attempt leaving to do the loop backwards. We spent our first year cruising The Tennessee River and prepping for our first long range trip up to the tip of Michigan. We left April 1, 2022 and headed up the rivers to Michigan, spent the summer up there and then cruised back to Chattanooga arriving back 7 months later on November 1, 2022. In May of 2024 We started our second attempt leaving to do the loop backwards. Please Subscribe. Thank you!
