2) Big body of water!
3) Great race committee (square lines, good courses.) The 2007...
The February 15 Sunday NY Times had an article on iceboating, and the article led off with the Sunfish class' own Joel Furman! Even better, if you visit the article below, there is a link to a video, and Joel is extensively interviewed, and the writer takes a ride with Joel on his iceboat...
Just found out that saturdays racing is canceled - Hannah is paying an unwelcome visit. Racing will happen on sunday and there will be registration Sunday morning as well. Rpdated info will be on Surf City YC's website today. Rumor is that the last race start time will be pushed back as well to...
