Big winds at the mission today.Almost looking forward to some lighter winds.

Mission Marsh Iceboating

Another great day.Today at Mission Marsh,nice bay 5 min. from home.Nice 15 mph winds on hard fast ice.Really need to get my blades sharpe.

Amethyest Again

Another day at amythest,big winds and cool.Ice was cleared of snow but a lot of small very stiff drifts.Much better ice at Birch Beach right now.Might try mission Marsh tomorrow.Ice is very hard so runners need stoning nightly.

Western challenge

Western Challenge had 80 DN's from N.A. and Ger.,Czheck,Poland.Here are a few shots.

Ice Boating

Been off line for a while.have a new winter passion DN iceboating.I describe it as Cat Sailing on Steroids. Great start to the year.So far have sailed on Lottit Lake.Five days at Barnum, three days at the Western Challenge on Pelican and since the a week and counting out on fantastic ice at Amethyest Habour.Included are some pics of the sailing this year.

Last Laser Sail?

Got out on the laser on our home Lake.Little cool 9 degrees Celsius.Nice breeze,sailed to the end of the Lake and back,pretty cold at the end of a couple hrs.

Last Hobie Sail?

Sailed for a couple of Hrs today on the Hobie,got on the water early,9:30 and sailed in a nice breeze with some intermittent down pours.I actually like sailing in the rain.Water was smooth and the boat just scoots quietly across the Lake.Took the mast down,probably last time out on the Hobie for this season.
