Dear sailors, friends, and supporters,
as the year comes to a close, we reflect on the incredible moments we’ve shared on the water and the camaraderie that binds us as a community. Together, we’ve celebrated achievements, embraced challenges, and kept the spirit of the Flying Dutchman alive and thriving.
We wish you a joyous holiday season filled with warmth, laughter, and cherished memories with loved ones. May your New Year be blessed with fair winds, smooth seas, and countless opportunities to sail into new adventures.
Thank you for being an essential part of our class.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us at the IFDCO
