All,
Chuck could not have said it better. There are just so many treasured
moments with your friends and family, from the weekly beer-can race to day
cruises watching fireworks to long trips exploring new harbors and towns (or,
as we say it, seeking out new worlds and new civilizations).
For those of you who have 9 minutes to spare, here's some of the great
moments that my wife, my crew and our families have had on board the Enterprise:

It even includes shots from the C&C Rendezvous in Mystic from last
September.
This was done on my MacBook Pro, using iPhoto -- and I have to admit, I
never get tired of watching it.
All the best,
Edd
