Too quiet. How 'bout some pictures? I've posted this before but it remains one of my favorites. Southbound on the mighty Hudson...

These were from 2007 when we had Christmas on our Carver Motor Yacht. We had put her up for sale and knew this would be the last Christmas having her so we decided to spend the Holiday there. If you have the room, I highly recommend it because it was fun and something you will always remember. However, I don't think we will be doing Christmas on the 298 Vista (especially now that we have 4 kids).

What did Santa use for the Chimney? Wouldn't all those reindeer make the boat top heavy? :mrgreen:

Just kidding of course, I bet that is something the kids (and you) will remember forever.

One more question though, Does Santa use dolphins in salt water and bass in fresh water to pull his boat?

We just bought the same highchair for one of our twins. I have no boating pictures as we did not use it last summer. Just a picture of my best buddy Cody that we had to put down the day after Thanksgiving :cry:

WD, Cody sure was a gorgeous companion. Other than his size, he looks VERY much like our golden. I'm so sorry for your loss. But I know you did the right thing and you've remained in our thoughts since it happened.
