Truth be told, without J. D. and Jim McDonagh there never would have been a 2010 DN North American Championship regatta.
When nobody in the United States could find ice they jumped into Jim’s van, drove 6.5 hours north to Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada, to scout for ice. The rest of the story is now history.
The class owes these two guys a huge debt of gratitude.
Thank you, JD. Thank you, Jim.

Hey Rocky, Watch me pull a rabit out of my hat....
For the fifth time since 2000, Minnesota Ice Sailors have once again, for a North American Championships on the only ice available in North America.
That's five of the last six stand alone NA's in our back yard.
Thanks guys for making this one happen.
Tip of the helmet.
No rest until we bring a Worlds to Minnesota!
