Well, finally finished unwrapping the gifts under the tree this morning and have to say, I'm fortunate enough to have a wonderful wife! Looks like my 17' Outrage is going to be sporting new cushions from Hall's this spring, to go along with the new fish finder and the rebuilt carbs she had at her last checkup. I'm really looking forward to spring...

All in all, life is good!

Merry Christmas!

I got My first set of Bi-Focals, perfect for checking out the numbers on bouys & then looking down at the chart on my my New Raymarine A57D Chartplotter/Fishfinder without having to take off my reading glasses, of course I'll be wearing my new red knit Boston Whaler watch cap because I'll be hitting the water early to check out the new Chartplotter, and I'll be able to go in the cuddy of my Revenge & take a little snooze under my Red Boston Whaler Fleece blanket....Life is good, my family looks after me...Merry Christmas to you all!!!

A kicker for my new-to-me 1982 Montauk:

This is an absolute necessity where I use my boat, and now I can finally get out on the Pacific where this classic Montauk (and I) feel most at home. A perfect Christmas gift for my boat.

Conquest got the "spa treatment" (compound/polishing) and a new Carver mooring cover to keep her looking good. Looking good after 10 years.

My lot neighbors asked if I was a detailer for hire!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

My Outrage got a new shrinp pot, a filleting knife, a set of foul-weather gear, and a pair of binoculars. Not a bad Christmas haul. Seems as though the Santa made a stop at Seattle Marine.

Santa was very kind to us this year.
He delivered a 1989 Boston Whaler 18' Guardian to our doorstep.
We caught a fleeting glimpse of him, in his bright Red sleigh, as he dropped of our gift.

I don't know...I'm not advanced in age enough yet to even be thinking about grandchildren (even children are still a few years off for me), but I would think it would be a toss-up between that and an 18' Outrage.

Something I have wanted ever since I got my first Whaler three years ago.

Ed,
Congratulations! Grandchildren are the best!

Peter, if you think there's a toss-up between a child and a boat, it's probably a really good thing that you plan to wait a while before becoming a father.

Linda and I got the whaler a new garage. We are in escrow
on a weekend place in Monterey (Marina, actually). The whaler
and the dive gear, and maybe the Pathfinder will live down
there.

Sapple: that camera rig is a great value. I've got one ramp
where I have to leave the trailer in soft dirt, so minimal
drag distance is important. But check out the "others also
bought". ;-) Nose and ear hair trimmer!! ;-)
