Time to put away the A cat and Fire up the iceboat. I was getting tired of sailing around at 10-15 knots anyway. Time to go fast for a change. The reality of the situation is that 10 degrees F with 20 knots of wind and a large sheet of black ice is about the best life can get. It beats the hell out of sweltering in the Florida Keys anyday. In fact, the only open water I want to see in the next 5 months is in my beer mug. Sail Fast, Sail Hard Water
