The News Years dip and sip(hot chocolate?)
Is it on this year? Any thoughts?
I have decided to not windsurf this winter (except for possibly very special occations) until I get a warmer wetsuit or a dry suit. $$$$

Wet Suit
Turtle: I have a wet suit for sale you might want. I am 6'.2" med build. The suit has longer arms and legs in it than normal. I got a deal on a new dry suit that Whites are making so I no longer need this Steamer. It is very warm and in good shape. $75.00 is all I want for a quick sale. Let me know 661-1109 ( Victoria)

New Years sail/hang 2-gether
I've been thinking about this one.....as last years went very well even with the snow and cold weather..well..except for Sharky's swim and Starboard Steve's kite rescue....HA!!
I'm definitely IN again this year and will bring the TUB OF HOT CHOCOLATE(for mixer). If anyone else that wants to could bring possibly some COFFEE or FOOD. The similar setup as last year as I think that worked out well. Site to be determined by wind but IV worked well and I think Willows or Esquimalt would both work well too. The wind worked out last year as well but I guess we'll have to wait and see for that.
Hey Turtle-Dood, Thanks for starting this thread and getting the ball rolling. Anyone else want to chime in about setting this one up....PAT/RICK..??

oh, I think the "chilliwagon" was planned into the day already by Pat and Rick
I hope to bring some totties, maybe we could rent the tearoom at Willows (I'll make some calls) or at least hide behind the hedges and building. I can't say I enjoyed the temps at IV last year....sailing was ok but it would have been nice to be able to hang out after the sail a bit...there's just NO shelter there at all. I suppose IV has the advantage of being able to build a fire?
If anyone has a pickup (won't fit in my van), we could load up my heatlamp and nestle it under some tarps with a BBQ or something. Maybe tarping that "kiter grater" gazebo at IV and the heatlamp would work, come to think of it

New Years....
Hey Kus, if you can look into who we talk to about getting the tea room opened for us......I will plan out how to get some shelter at IV......I'm thinking with that new structure down there we could tarp a couple walls and be sheltered from the wind and rain/snow....could be quite nice with a fire and your heatlamp-thingy!! 
I'll head down there tomorrow to measure sizes of tarps needed.
That place might be the ticket if we cannot get the tea room opened.
