The majority of the crews for the Sydney to Hobart yacht race spent Christmas Day with their families before preparing to head south on Boxing Day.
There was relatively little activity at the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia, though Santa was spotted paying Mexican crew Iataia a visit earlier on Christmas Day.
The fleet of 82 will set off at 1pm, AEDT on Wednesday.
Maxi boat Wild Oats Eleven is favoured by the bookies to take line honours and equal Morna's record of achieving that feat in three successive years.
