Thanks Hutt for the ice report of Christina. Sunday's wind forcast looks to be about 7MPH out of the NW. Let's hope it builds to 10.
I am loading up now for an 8:30 departure, maybe. I do not want to be the only one sailing on Christina with minimum ice conditions. Please call me if anyone else heading up!

Buffalo Lake is substantially frozen as of sunrise this morning!

As it wss 3 degrees at Milepost 8 this morning, the ice checkers there may find suitable sailing ice. Certainly Sailing Sunday.

The way this sailor sees it, we're shaping up for a fantastic weekend in Buffalo for the Great Western Challenge.

I received a very short message a few moments ago, (middle of the night), a lake in the Detroit Lakes MN area froze yesterday, Saturday Nov 28.

Still waiting for information about Christina near Ashby.

Expect more details after first light here in Minnesota

Ice! It'll be there.

We've had several teaser ice reports where lakes have substantially frozen and again thawed.

The forecast is for colder weather starting about now thru the Great Western Challenge Regatta.

Look forward to hearing from ice scouts as soon as Friday this week, It'll be there, and of course... it's gonna be Epic.

From Space...

Take a look at the top of the picture from coastwatch

Of course it looks like the ice is still pretty far north...

In your opinion is there any advantage to tapered battens?

Looking for an 18 ft alum. mast to use on a J boat until I can get a decent one made

I sometimes like to just click through a few random images and see where it takes me.. today... this one came up... So I lightened it up a bit.. for our viewing pleasure...
