To all of our good friends in the C Dory World Marie and I wish all of your a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. (Angel says "woof, woof" to all of her furry and non furry friends also. )
We would rather be on our C Dory, but a 25' camper in my daughter's driveway in Culver City, is a good substitute.
Our wish is to see as many of you as possible at the C Dory gatherings this next year. _________________ Bob Austin

Merry Christmas and happy holidays guys!! It's nice to finally get a few days off and decompress (a little!). Been so busy at work lately. Here's a picture of my neighbor's Xmas lights from our marina! My boat is not decorated but at least I switched on my blue LED cockpit lights. Lol

MikeR, thank you for the pictures of Fossil Bay today. The weather and the water look terrific. Also, it looks like you have the whole dock to yourself. How nice. What a great place to celebrate Christmas. Merry Christmas all.

Merry Christmas, Bob, Marie, and all C-Brat friends! A lovely Christmas Eve here in the Tropical Tip, celebrating with our daughter and son-in law. A great dolphin viewing today without taking the boat out - from the bridge onto our island.
Wishing you all a joyous holiday and plenty of time on the water in 2019!

Also, Merry Christmas from Matia Island (dock was not removed for winter as usual), and from Squalicum Harbor as well, my final destination for Christmas with family. Not as sunny as yesterday, but definitely calm! Payback tomorrow with gale winds from the SE, I'll be here a couple of days for sure.
And GaryF, yes, had the whole island to myself, in fact in 2 days of cruising, the only other boat I've seen was another C-Brat, go figure!
Merry Christmas everyone!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Dr. Bob, Marie and all our other C-Brat friends that we have been blessed with. We are anchored out at Butchers Bend on the St. John’s River in Florida. Saw dozens of manatee today and lots of different bird species. Stopped off at Hontoon Island for a hike and learned that the new dock boards should be done by our gathering in March. Testing out our new Garmin autopilot. It stears the C-Otter better than I can at the slow speeds I’ve been doing today. Should be able to test it in winds and waves on Thursday. Always fun visiting relatives but be sure to be back in time for the Hontoon Island CBGT in March!
Blessings to all.... _________________ Tom and Joyce Schulke

And a late(r) but still meaningful, "Hope your Christmas was Merry" to all the C-BRAT family. Whether you are near or far, on the water or on the land, at home with family or away, IF you are a C-BRAT you have something to be thankful for, and plenty to look forward to. Enjoy, going forward. Stay safe, and thanks to Bob for starting this thread. Always glad to see you on the site.
Harvey

Happy Holidays, everyone. I've enjoyed another year of reading and chatting about our boats and our past, present and future cruises. This is such a valuable site, in so many ways.
MikeR, in my humble opinion you're this year's most enterprising regional Christmas cruiser. Many times this year I tried and failed to lasso even a modest space on that popular Sucia dock, only to be sent back out to sea. And there you are, properly lit and waiting for Santa, with acres of dock all to yourself. I think that photo needs to find its way into the 2020 calendar.
