Welcome to our latest #CruisingConversation with Evan and Karly from Navigating Nietzels!
Navigating Nietzels has built a loyal following by documenting their journey around America’s Great Loop—proving that with the right mindset, trawler cruising is within reach. Their growing YouTube audience has followed along as they balanced work and life aboard, guided by their enthusiasm, optimism, and their lovable dog, Ripley.
This video brings together two conversations—beginning with an impromptu dockside meeting at the 2025 AGLCA event in Norfolk, VA, and continuing at Trawlerfest in Fort Lauderdale in February 2026, where we reconnected to reflect on their completed Loop, lessons learned, and what lies ahead.
