For all of those out at sea or in the harbor, Merry Christmas. I finally get to have my first Christmas with my family in 4 years and am thinking about how lucky I am and how nice it is to be off from work. I wish you all fair winds and following seas and hope you all have a relaxing day aboard ship.

Smee

l echo that. I’m lucky enough to have a job where I’m home every other year, and this is that year . l raise my glass to those out working on the high seas, rivers, bayous, lakes, what have you.
