top 5 christmas prezzies for swmbo?

[JohnRob]

Last few internet shopping days for Christmas. Ideas/advice please?

1 nice long traditional boat hook - is she hooked, save on expletives , should have better chance of fending off something, and size matters, as they say....

2 Eberspacher heating.... a warm swmbo is a happy swmbo?

3 epirb - doesn't trust the captain to know where the f*** he is. Brings a bit of (non-male) reliabilty into the disaster recovery situation?

4 folding bicycle ... either send the captain, hangover and all, to get the baguette "on is bike" or if all is lost send one of the kids off to do same and have faint chance of getting a result before 11.30 c.e.t?

5 charts of likely crusing area - highly dangerous as increases risk of swmbo having the faintest idea of where they are going and hence propensity to complicate things with critical time of arrival issues such as meal time/E L'eclerc opening times/general retail opening times/kids going to sleep times/etc etc all of which have no bearing on lunar cycles/tidal movements and minor issues such as wind over tide etc etc....

Any and all advice appreciated.....................

I plan to get swmbo a new boat. I know she really needs one. I will choose it myself I think, I know exactly which model/options would suit her best

Clue

It's 58 feet long and as Happy1 tells me it runs on batteries I have just ordered 4 container loads of AA size.

I'm pleased about the battery part. SWMBOs generally like battery powered things so she will be extra pleased with this thoughtful present
