Re: Happy $mas!
It's getting me being on it and getting pleasure out of the situation. With a bit of luck my lovely lady will get exactly the same.

Re: Happy $mas!
To all the butt getters, may they be round and true ( symmetrical) 
Zee, may Santa bring you special engine gifts
DOJ-what's your boat getting?
Me, I can't count the pressies, we are burning up the boat stores buying for Rain Dog, thus buying for us . Amsteel line(assorted sizes) splicing Dvd for me, Radio cabinet with new fancy schmancy radio(music), new head( compost), weather cloths, etc etc. I guess our present to us is a sweet refit. Shelves in the compartments!! I loves me my shelves.
Best present will be anchored out on New Year's Eve

Re: Happy $mas!
Mine's getting a new-to-me sweet little diesel Volvo the week after Christmas.
And everything associated (starter/generator, new Racor R12S filter, etc.)
But mostly I'm getting back underway which will be the very best.
