Some will argue that the lighted boat parades have nothing to do with
Christmas, and some of the parade officials have taken the word out of the
parade's title. But, we know what the parades are *really* commemorating!
Here is a list from BoatUS magazine for those interested.

Don't know if we'll make the 2008 parade, but I may put the boat in just to

Oh, come on...as tasteless as you are, competing should be easy.
You can light up one side of your boat with a massive tacky cross,
put an American flag on the other side and on the stern a huge Christmas
tree, all in lights...and you can hang hologram ornaments off the tree
depicting the products of your familial baby factories.
