If you're an iceboater in Minnesota, this is your weekend.

Minnetonka has recently been sailed and judged to be acceptable for sailing...

Two DN's sailed Lake Calhoun today in Light Air, hoping for details.

The Fire on Ice Course on Phalen has been regularly sailed...

I suspect other lakes are also quite boatable, medicine lake in plymouth was driven today. there's a touch of shell ice and some healed drain holes on 24+ inches of ice. moderately heavy fishing traffic...

Plans for tomorrow... several Nites are currently set up on Lower Minnetonka in Cottagewood, a stern steerer is reportedly being set up there tomorrow morning... thats where this sailor is launching to sail lower Minnetonka.

Caution: there are reports of minor shell ice conditions on almost all these lakes, also reports of healed drain holes that can still give you a heck of a ride there are sure to be real hazards too. Keep your eyes open, sail smart.
