When y'all passed through Larose AKA the West Larose Bridge, I live about 5 miles down bayou Lafourche...born and raised. I'm also a towboat captain for almost 30 years. Thanks for sharing y'all journey with us.
Hi Chris and Lisa. Thanks for sharing your trip. Like most of us watching, we are thinking about the Loop or planning on it in the near future. Looking forward to checking in weekly.
Great videos!! Will be following along your journey! My wife and I hope to do the loop in a few years and would love to do it on a 390 as well!! Safe travels. Jason and Tara Ivey KY Lake
That is awesome! Watch for our tour of Cool Beans soon, and feel free to ask any questions along the way you might want to know about the 390! Thanks for watching! 🙂
So glad I found your channel! We live in San Antonio and have dreams about doing the loop in a coupleof years, but doubts about how to manage it when the nearest marina is over 2 hours away. Seeing that you found a way after even being further from a marina than we are is inspiring, so we'll be following you closely on your adventure!
Nice job on the videos. Do you need reservations for overnight slips or dockage? If so, did you make the reservations by calling ahead on the same day? Thanks.
Hello, and thank you for the compliment! I hope you catch up to where we are today (Ep 30!) You don't need reservations ahead of time, you can call as you are getting close to a destination (or use the app called Dockwa, if a marina participates). We have been very lucky that we haven't had any trouble getting spots at marinas. But some loopers we know make them for weeks ahead of time. I don't personally like that because due to weather, things change often and then there's a list of marinas to call and change. So we try to mainly do same-day or 1 to 2 days ahead of time. Thanks and let us know if you have any other questions! and I might do this for interesting boat information next week! Thanks for watching! :-)
Hello, yes, we are going to do a tour of Cool Beans at some point - but to answer your questions - we have a 440 Yanmar and we do have bow (and stern) thrusters! Thank you for watching! 🙂
