Looking at snow outside.........thanks for the reminder there is life on the other side of winter.

[@SailingKateLouise]

it's actually been snowing here in Tasmania, which is a bit crazy as it's our summer. I think this Christmas is going to be a lot cooler, sometimes it gets to 38C at Christmas. Enjoy the snow, cheers Paul

So envious. As I'm watching this in my home in Newfoundland, Canada, it is blowing 20 knots from the east with 2 degrees Celsius with rain drizzle and fog. My boat is stowed away in the shed for the winter. Thank you for sharing these delights from your season of sailing. Merry Christmas

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi Derrick....rug up and stoke the fire. I hope you have a beautiful white Christmas, cheers Paul

[@jrdancey6331]

Hi Paul. Merry Christmas from central British Columbia Canada, where it has been a "balmy!" -40 degrees C. for about 4 days now! Really enjoying your videos, we just discovered them a couple of weeks ago, and have been binge watching them!

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks JR -40C now that is winter!...we are currently about 21C which is not as hot as normal for Christmas. thanks for watching the videos. Have a great Christmas and New Year, cheers Paul

[@FantomsNephew]

Wonderful! Sight for sore throat, having a manly cold and snowy winterland up here in Sweden! Keep up the good work!

Thanks so much, Paul, for the highlights, although EVERY episode throughout the year is a highlight! As you say, "What's not to like... " Looking forward to more SKL cruises in 2023. Happy New Year to the Sydney Raid Group and your devoted (read "tolerant") families.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Mike, I hope the snow is not too deep where you are . Thanks for watching all year, have a great Christmas as well, cheers Paul

[@mikeu5380]

@@SailingKateLouise A snowdrift covers my wee Seahopper, and they're setting up for ice fishing on "my lake". Guess I'll hibernate until the next SLK/Bruce/Josh videos come along to awaken me gladly. Cheers from northern Japan!

[@davelawrence6777]

Absolutely a spectacular video Paul beautiful sailing beautiful boats great like minded mates wonderful memories what more could a man ask for thanks for the ride along and a Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and yours from across the big pond

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Dave. Glad you enjoyed it and have a great Christmas, cheers Paul

[@timequest9802]

Incredible Drone shots!! Do most of the Sailors sleep aboard their boats or camp on land?

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi, most sleep aboard as often there aren't places to put up a tent...or you are not allowed to. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@Jmmondeau]

Love your videos. Although I’ll bet that Sweet Pee is a bit too large at 21 feet for your cruising adventures

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Jim, happy sailing and thanks for watching...Sweet Pee offers a little more comfort though. Have a great Christmas, cheers Paul

[@jennycafehier1555]

nice

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Jenny, thanks for watching and have a great Christmas, cheers Paul

[@TurboTim248]

What is the model of the little white boat #271? Thanks for the great videos!

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi, it's a Cherry 16 trailer sailer, quit a few built in the late seventies. Built using stitch and glue method, easier for DIY, a light and quick boat. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@shanevillis4079]

Paul, in heavier wind, have you tried going with jib and mizzen only, no main?? If so, how did Kate Louise handle??

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi Shane, yes if it's above 10 Knots I put 1 reef in the main, anything higher I drop the main and go with just the genoa and mizzen. Being a yawl she is very well balanced without the main and that gives a much better ride. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@shanevillis4079]

@@SailingKateLouise Cheers Paul, hope you and yours have a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year. Stay safe

[@sailingcitrinesunset4065]

Im sure I've seen this before! Did you upload the right video?

It's a recap of the year...or was that a joke? Thanks for your support, cheers Paul
