Weekend Report Lake Pepin

January 10, 2006 - 02:27 — rumrunr

Ice on Lake Pepin was about 90% clear at Pepin. Fishermen report 6" of ice at the lower (Pepin) end of the Lake. Ice was firm with no noticable cracks but little on the rough side, especially for the DN's. Iceboater should use caution since there is still a lot of open water above Stockholm/Lake City.

We had about 9 boats sailing out of Pepin on Saturday with realy light winds. Sunday we had steady winds until 2:00 when it pretty much died. 8-9 boats sailing. Great time.

My thanks to the crew who helped get the mast up on the Rum Runner on Saturday.
