Posts: 217 | Well now that Christmas is finally over (Orthodox as well), what did you get?
I got a new trampoline for my NACRA 5.7. Now I can sail my 2-man boat without danger of falling into the lake each time I tack.

The good news: if you're living in the northern hemisphere you have weeks to solve the problem ... The SD card was brand new from the packaging. It got formatted by the card since when I pulled it out and put it in the PC, it had the proper directories. Still no way to take pics though. I'm going sailing this weekend so I would have loved to have had it. In Florida, you can sail year round :P | | | Re: Christmas presents for sailors - what did you get?

You know saying you sail is not the same thing as actually sailing.
