I have been able to get out almost every weekend still. The temps have been
dipping down a bit, but if the water isn't frozen...
This was the first year I was able to go out on Christmas Eve and what a treat!
Sneaking a couple hours out on the water to sail in 20 kts over smooth flat
water while everyone else is rushing around to get presents. That's living! I
was still able to make it to the party on time too. For the most part I have
been the only boat on the Bohemia river too with the exception of a laser on
two of the weekends.

} Wow! Here at Lake (now a pond) Lanier, we we're out and about in high
50 degree temps, 7-10 winds and great racing. However, there is a threat of
snow on Thursday.

I went frostbiting in my dinghy until the puffs got over 25 and
everybody was getting knocked down. The water temperature in Great South Bay
is high thirties/low forties.

Okay so we were out on a Hinckley 40 power boat and we had heat,
but nonetheless, it was nice to be out on the water on Saturday.
A friend had to go over to the Hinckley yard in Oxford from
Annapolis and asked if we wanted to go along. Of course we jumped at the
opportunity. 33 kts and about an hour each way with lunch in Oxford. Needless
to say it was a nice little jaunt. And even with the enclosed cockpit
and some heat, it was still pretty cold.
Saw a few hearty sailors and a few work boats out, but other than
that, it was pretty quiet on the water.
