If you got something cool for your boat for Christmas, share it with us here. I read on here this morning where a guy's wife is having a new lake house built for his Christmas gift! WOW - I wouldn't even know what to say about that!

Me - I gave one son a new Hyperlite wake skateboard and shoes, another son an O'brien knee board, and my wife a new ladies ski vest. And we're having my boat rebuilt for my Christmas present (at Viper Customs in Knoxville).

Share what you got and include pics if you want . . .

I got a Fein multimaster tool like the one on the TV infomercial. I have to say it is quickly becoming one of my favorite tools . Thanks Wifey

I got a new Craftsman 185 peice toolkit for the boat - the el-cheapo I have had in the boats for 10 years was finally too "cheap".

Thanks Wifey!!

Excellent - I've been there. Three sons, three first Christmas mornings, it's sure a fun time in life! Enjoy it - the time will be gone before you know what happened.

No gifts exchanged Christmas day between the wife & I - instead, she got the back patio and front walk resurfaced (textured spraycrete) & I got a box of parts for the rebuild (new set of gauges, riser gaskets, engine belts & hose, RW impellers, carb rebuild kit, steering clamp block, driver's seat slides, etc.). Santa did leave spare transom and T-handle keel plugs in my stocking.

The kids got a new Hyperlite Coex wakesurfer (plus a bunch of other non-boat stuff - they're spoiled rotten) - self imposed motivation for me to get this done over the winter so they can try it out in the spring.

As I said in another thread, I got a whole new cabin interior for my 24v as mine was sun-stretches from the previous owner. I also got a guitar wah pedal I wanted, a new coffee maker with a built in grinder, as well as a bunch of law books I needed/wanted.
