Hi M-sailors, Having had to swallow the anchor because of advancing age, your stories and adventures are most enjoyable reading during the year. I know that you have all been good boys and girls this year, so I'm sure that Santa will bring you the new set of sails you'd like to have; will supply the non-drag anchor for windy anchorages; will be there to lend a guiding hand when you find yourself in the "soup" for the first time and will guide you safely to your destination (fog sailing is an acquired skill along the New England coast). I'd just like to wish you all a Merry Christmas, with lots of good sailing in the coming year; with always a wind that lets you get to your destination on a broad reach; and that you always have a hand's breadth of water under your keel. Happy sailing, Connie ex M-15 #400 LEPPO
