Blue Turtle Cruising

Decorating for Christmas

‘Tis the season, and with holiday cheer comes festive decorations, and as I’ve found, it’s no different when living on a boat. Some folks around here go all out with lights and decorations and they’re beautiful. Stringing lights on our trawler does pose a few problems. The big issue is available electric outlets. Luckily, we have an outlet up on the bridge where we can plug in a power strip. We needed a few extension cords to run up to there but we were able to wrap lights around our mast as well on the bow of the boat. Below are photos of our boat as well as a few in the marina that are decorated for Christmas. (I apologize for the blurry images…best I can do in low light with an iPhone ๐Ÿ™‚
