The Great Loop Challenge

The Great Loop is a system of continuous waterways that encompasses the eastern portion of the United States and parts of Canada. 

To raise awareness and funds for pediatric cancer research, Captain Scott “Red” Flowers set a World Record for the fastest completion of the Great Loop in 19 days and 19 hours in a 28-foot Canyon Bay boat.

This Canyon Bay 28-foot Hybrid not only set the record but also raised nearly $400,000 for the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation, and now it can be yours! The auction is open, and the more it goes for, the more funds will be raised for pediatric cancer research.

Help us reach our collective goal of raising $1 million by bidding on the boat, sharing with friends, and/or donating any amount. Learn more about the Great Loop and bid on the boat or donate today through the buttons below!
