Temperatures as they are around the midwest, there's the possibility the Nite Nationals will be sailed nearby this year. The scheduled dates are January 13-14. It's hoped that many of the local Nite owners who enjoy their cruising will sail. First-time racers should look at this as a easy opportunity to expand their iceboating experience.

Up to date information can be found at the class website: www.pyc.org/nitehome.htm.

Wind-driven snow and cold temps made for hard/sticky snow on Geneva. This weekend's regatta has been postponed at the last minute as a result.

That's good for us. It's been re-scheduled for next weekend, February 17-18. Possible lakes are Green Lake (WI) and Geneva.
Both are super great locations.

If you've never been to a national, this is your year. There's a group from Minnetonka that goes each year, and we're hoping the guys at White Bear, Bald Eagle and LAKE RILEY! will come join the Minnesota contingent.
