I can't stand all of the PC stuff.....Merry Christmas to all!  Happy Holidays just doesn't have the same ring.

According to our Cult Leader, Bob23, we are supposed to say Merry Compac Christmas though.  :)

May I also add my Best Wishes for the Festive Season and fair winds for the forthcoming sailing season. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those who offered advice and suggestions over this last year during our refit of 'Applejack'.

Best Regards

Gordon

Thank you Don. Being a gentile who has many Jewish friends, I love celebrating Hanukkah. Nothing wrong with 8 days of  eating and gift giving!

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to all. The forecast says 74 here in Raleigh for Christmas day. That will be a record. I hope to go sailing next week!

By now most of you will have to agree that I'm probably the luckiest Sailor here this year.  My Admiral and I started writing Christmas Newsletters together 40 years ago.  This years letter was written by Vicki from her perspective.  My Christmas present is that she could write it.  I want to share it with you all here.  Hope there are no objections.

Merry Christmas!!  TG

If anyone objects, Tim, it's plank walking time! Either that or we'll have Bob send Vinnie and the boys for a little chat.  Great letter, so glad Vickie has recovered well and is able to share the positive aspect of the event, that is so many folks jumping in to help.

Merry Christmas to all and keep in your thoughts and prayers those not very far from us who will spend Christmas grieving the loss of loved ones killed in the Tornadoes last night.  For the second year in a row, way too close.

A'fter reading the letter, I can only that Oregon's bear population is interested in eating picnic lunches rather than hikers.

Hi Paul and Kelli and welcome! Where do you sail? What's the name of your boat? We're glad you are here amongst this bunch of crazy Compac-o-nauts! And a very Merry Christmas and happy 2016 to you!

I'll second that welcome from Bob 23! Don't know why but these special little yachts sure seem to attract the best folks. Welcome and Merry Christmas.
