so....
lots of lakes and fluky winds,
been sailing forever, first time on the ice.
Wow~~~~_/)~~~~~ fast as heck
friends metal triangle with runners
and my sunfish sail
Pokegama lake has been iced up for quite some time now and I had some really fast rides.even added a headlight for night cruising.
i think ive probably hit 35 or maybe 40 on the "skate of death".
quite cool.
now im psyched to see the pros going really really fast.
wanted;

brainerd ????

is there racing ???
when, where, directions??? please!!!
thanks
you guys are psycho
i like that
i dont know what you folks would call suitable ice, but
pokegama has twelve inches and more thickness with some crusty bits and snowed upon and then rained and then refrozen with some well established snowmobile tracks but again i don't know i'd imagine you folks wouldn't be diggin it too much there have been some winds now and then but I've found that takin the ice boat for a walk across the lake and back isn't that much fun
