Leaving Norfolk for a PROTECTED ANCHORAGE in Hampton Virginia (Trawler Life)

After almost a week at a marina (one of our longest marina stays yet) for the AGLCA Spring Rendezvous, it is time to go! Unfortunately, there is a week of gale-force winds on and off including 5-6 footers at the entrance of the Chesapeake... not our ideal cruising weather. This means it's time for us to find a protected anchorage, drop the hook, and wait it out. Follow along as we try to find this across the James River from Norfolk to Hampton Virginia!

Thanks for watching!

Cheers from the Loop,
Jennifer and Elliot

ABOUT US
Hi! We are high school sweethearts from Atlanta, Georgia who decided to take a year off to travel around the world. Together we decided to create vlogs for our journey as a fun way to remember it. On September 15, 2019, we left Atlanta with 3 bags, 2 one-way tickets, and 1 goal of traveling for a whole year. Little did we know, 6 months later we would find ourselves in a nationwide lockdown in India. After spending 5 months in India, we came back to the United States and decided to purchase a 34’ Trawler, dive headfirst into boat life, and kick-off America’s Great Loop.
The good, the bad, the ugly – and most importantly, the real and real funny. We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.”, just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem.

Thank you for following us along our journey!
