Great Loop Expenses

We haven’t yet started cruising America’s Great Loop, but when we begin we’ll report our expenses along the way.

Marinas & Dockage

Any time we pay-to-stay somewhere on our Loop boat.

Diesel & Gasoline

We anticipate fuel costs to be a large Loop expense.

Water & Pump-outs

Until we get a composting toilet and water-maker!

Food & Restaurants

Fuel for us! Includes beer, whiskey, and sweet treats.

Recreation & Education

For us, these are often one in the same!

Outfitting & Gear

Equipment and clothes purchased for a more enjoyable Loop.

Toiletries & Sundries

Disposables and cleaning products for ourselves and our Loop boat.

Licenses & Fees

We’re definitely fishing in every state we Loop through!

Boat Purchase

Purchasing, moving, and owning our Loop boat.

Upgrades & Additions

Upgrades and add-ons that will convey with the Loop boat.

Maintenance & Repairs

Projects that we must complete or suffer the consequences!

Haul Outs & Storage

We’ll be Looping for more than one year, and storing our boat.

Apps & Software

Looping and boating related programs.

Insurance & Safety

As newer big boaters, insurance was a bit tricky to secure.

Travel Expenses

Rental cars, ride shares, plane rides, and hotels.

Miscellaneous

Curious to see what falls in this category… pedicures?
