It’s The 5th Annual Woody Boater Holiday Party!
Well, Dennis and Ed are already here!
It came late this year! But it’s never to late to have a fun office party. So come on by! The entire gang will be here through out the day and hopefully this year Woodyboatervilles finest wont get called. Also please. Zip gets a little tipsy and doesn’t appreciate the Cheeta jokes.
Yes, we went there!
It’s so good to see Larry again. He’s been the life of the party since he died two years ago.
Come on by, leave a comment or tow. The drinks are on us!
Lily! Moderation Lily!
Woody Boaters finest usualy shows up around 10
Oh Lily! Just a sip at a time.
Woody Gal, and her big Johnson are always the life of the party!
Say hi to each other and have fun!
Coffee is ready and there’s eggs and bacon in the kitchen. Pancakes will be up soon.
I can see we are starting off early this year. The Cobbossee gang is gathered and on our way.
It’s early but I’m here to PARTY! I start out this way but always end up flat on my face.
I just met the wealthy cousin of Chad’s monkey at the party, he is looking for 22′ Sportsman
Merry Christmas to all.
It seems a bit early, but then again, it should be happy hour somewhere.
Here ya go. This way you can still say you started your day with coffee.
It may be early but I’m gonna be prepared.
Are those vintage or reproduction advertising signs with “Woody Gal”? If so are they for sale…otherwise very nice!
That was taken at Lake Geneva at an auction.
You mean at The Abby in Fontana on Geneva Lake? HAHA!
Thanks for the information Matt
Ix-nay on the nutmeg sprinkling on your Eggnog. Try a pinch of old varnish dust instead… Ho ho ho!
It’s great to be among the first to arrive this year! And the weather doesn’t look like it will be a concern for travellers. Dennis and I dressed like that at our 4th annual Boat Shop Christmas Party last year. Along with Ben and Myrna H, we always have that party on the Friday before Christmas and it has grown every year. We had close to a hundred folks drop by last year. The plans for this year’s party were interrupted at the last minute by Ben’s need for bypass surgery. We are happy to report that all went well and he is home recuperating and being the the model patient for nurse Myrna. We will reschedule that party when he is back to full speed ahead. In the mean time it’s great to be attending the WoodyBoater party and we brought some of the Saugatuck Brewery stock we were holding for our party.
Merry Christmas to Woody boaters everywhere!
Myrna–Sorry to hear of Ben’s need for surgery…Glad all went well… Merry Christmas to you both…Hope to see you in (or at ) Tavares
I brought beer
OK Gang, the sun just came up and it’s 50 degrees, so the Michigan Chapter is on its way to the party. I just pulled off to the side for Marianne to take a few shots of the other boats on our Christmas Party run. We will be there soon so keep the party going strong. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Marianne and I, and all of the Michigan Chapter WoodyBoaters. See you in Algonac in June.

We are on our way, someone please pull the anchor.
The monkey needs to tell the penguin joke again to really get the party going.

Unless it gets reallllllllly foggy (previous contractural committment if it is), I have my transportation to the party arranged!
Merry ChrisCraftmas to all!!!!!!!!
Let’s see – if I can get through the locks without an issue, down the coast, through the canal and across the gulf, up the eastern seaboard – I may make it if this Santa Dust is still good… If not, Merry Christmas to all! Maybe next year 🙂

Another year of good times and fun photos here at Woody Boater. Thanks to everyone for joining in with us. This week Woody Boater is putting the finishing touches on a story for the next Brass Bell magazine, due out in early 2016.

Texx, Can’t wait to see a Woody Boater story featured in the pages of The Brass Bell.
Merry Christmas !!!
Nice Century Resorter, that photo boat! Ride a Thoroughbred!
Not sure I can wait until next year to see the Woody Boater story in The Brass Bell…but then I guess I don’t have any choice except to sit hee and bite my nails until then.
It’s after 7 am down under, someone go wake up Phil so he doesn’t have to party alone later when we all crash.
Steve I know you haven’t been that good now peg will make you sell your star, this ashtray sits on my desk,, but it is a problem a lot of our wives have,,Bill
I brought a few of my helpful friends from the Antique Boat Museum volunteer crew. Hope you have enough space and food for us!
