Great to read "the rest of the story" I'm assuming you will be continuing your loop adventures. Taking an extended time (years) to do it is the best IMO. Im not a looper but have done a lot of cruising in the NE & Great Lakes and have talked to a lot of loopers that rush through that area in one season. There is just too much to see and do in some spectacular fresh water cruising grounds.
Nice when a plan comes together.

We woul like to spend time in Erie, I was born in Lorain and have family in the area

You are being far to cautious before buying a smallish boat. (under 30 feet) Join up for some courses, buy a boat now, don't wait two years.
