A few days ago I came across a few posts on Facebook talking about a guy doing the "Great Loop" in an open, flat bottom "Jon boat".

He's doing it in less than 20 days and most who do it take 12 months or so (and some a lot more) and do it in a large launch.

To top it off he's a 71 yr old cancer survivor.

He should be completing it in the next few hours ... 

And a link to his live route track:

If you are on Facebook look for Robert Youens.
