A sure sign that seasons will be changing, and we will be back to boating soon. As I write this in January, looking out at the frozen tundra that is Blue Hill Bay, with another nor’easter heading our way and more forecasts of wicked negative wind chills, it takes a little imagination to envision that bay dotted with its summer complement of classic pleasure and rustic lobster boats.  \nThose of us who choose to live in these northern climes often get asked,“How do you survive the winters?” and why. For many, the stark change of seasons divides the year into manageable pieces, a time for being on the water, a time for maintenance, a time for planning and dreaming, even hobbies. Up here in Maine, there’s not much boating this time of year. Our New Year’s Day row was canceled due to gale force winds, but we’re into planning. We’ve opened registration for our Small Reach Regatta, planned several other boating events, and met to discuss the next Maine Small Craft Celebration. (Check out our MSCC ad in this issue.) As I write this in front of the fire with a swashbuckling Hornblower novel up next, there are worse ways to pass the time.  \nOnto TSCA news—we had many requests for a TSCA calendar last year, but we were late asking for photos. So, this year we’re getting our act together early and asking now for you to send in your best photos of your boats, a TSCA buddy’s boat, boating events, or scenic views. Depending on the number of entries, this could turn into a fun contest. Send in your highresolution photos to our editor, Andy Wolfe, at [andy@marinermedia.com](andy@marinermedia.com). Some of you are aware that Andy is recovering from a recent heart attack. He’s on the mend, and we wish him the best. TSCA council members and officers come and go, but it’s stalwarts like Andy who keep this ship steaming forward year after year.  \nDo you have too many boats? (Is that possible?)

While you’re shopping, isn’t it about time to get a newTSCA shirt and/or hat to replace the old “boatified” ones you’ve had for years?  \nI got a lot of response about the youth initiative we’ve been discussing.
