This is our favorite video so far. We live on the Santa Rosa Sound in Mary Esther. I was a Chief in the Air Force and retired at 30 years. I then became the City Manager of Mary Esther for almost 15 years. My wife retired as the Principal of Florosa elementary school. We became members of the Coast Guard Auxiliary and spend a lot of time on the water. I think we are past the age to do what you are doing but we do enjoy videos like this. Thanks
Great video and I enjoyed the shots of Mary Esther. I retired as the City Manager of Mary Esther a few years back and now I sit around enjoying watching other people's adventures.
My Father as well as "Pappy" Boyington, trained at that Naval Air Station. (No my Dad didn't know him) but he took me there during the 60's. Looks a LOT different today, thanks!
Wow, that is some real neat family history. Many thanks to your Father for serving! We did not get to see the base as all was closed with the tragic shooting that happened there two days prior.
Nice time to be on the water. Not a lot of traffic and good water conditions. It's nice to see the houses on the water, BUT I'm not sold on the idea of living that close, with what's going on with the climate.
Sam and Rev- Glad to see you made it all the way to Florida and fit in the slip! It was great crossing paths with you along the way. We are land lovers now in Northern Virginia. You sure have done a nice job documenting your journey. Safe travels in the New Year! - Owen & Maggie
Hey there! So great to hear from you all. We never would have made it to Florida if you hadn't been there to help us! We are still thankful. Happy New Year and stay in touch! 🎉
Sam & Rev: I really enjoy following you on the Loop! You both do a great job of providing us "Future Loopers" with some wonderful information and views from America's Greatest Adventure! Happy New Year! Safe Travels! God Bless!!!
Great fun again you guys. Sure hope you catch a picture of the dolphins soon, people may think your making them up :-) Way to own up to the fenders Rev, with all the awesome scenery it's probably easy to get distracted. Nice docking Sam!! Navigate safe Captain. Happy New Year!!!

No Destin Harbor stop? Dang! I guess you can't see it all but that a jewel of the area!
Can't really stop at every place on the Great Loop, but we have been there once before on land.
Y'all missed out on one of the best anchorages in the area. Fort McRee right across from NAS Pensacola! Absolutely beautiful.
👍
Love watching your travels.. you to are really fun to watch/listen to! Safe travels as you continue your journey!
Thanks, David! We are happy that you are enjoying the journey with us.

Yes, it has been interesting seeing all that!

Hey, you mentioned getting a different boat and doing the loop again. Just curious; looking for bigger? Smaller? Newer? Older?
We really don't know yet. We want less draft, less air draft and maybe 5 feet shorter. It's going to be fun shopping. 😁
Would you switch to diesel?
@@markmannix1141 We are now powered by twin diesels. On future boats we'll just keep our options open.
