GL: THE IDEAL LOOPER BOAT

[John & Judy Gill]

We are pleased to report that an article titled Looper Boat
Selection Made Easy by  the Two Js (John and Judy Gill) has
recentlly been published by Trawlers and Trawlering the Internets
leading resource for those who voyage, cruise and live aboard under
power -- and all who want to.

The Trawlers & Trawlering web site is listed below - simply double
click on the address <http://www.trawlersandtrawlering.com/>.

Click on the gray headline Looking for the ideal boat for the Great
Loop?  or the words Read More at the bottom of the paragraph under
the photograph of the Two Js V on the Georgian Bay.

The article was written for those who are just beginning to think
about their Americas Great Loop Cruise adventure and have lots of
questions about what type of boat is suited for long range cruising
and specifically for doing the Great Loop.

Those further along in the planning stages will have purchased and
studied Skipper Bobs books, attended a West Marine Trawler Fest, and/
or joined the Americas Great Loop Cruisers Association and attended
one of their Rendezvous with a Looper Boat Crawl.

We hope you find our article both informative and useful -- we dont
expect everyone to agree with everything weve said, as we know
better!  We aren't the experts, but we have been there and done
that.  So, take our views for what they are worth and do your own
thing (we wont be around to remind you that we said differently!).
