Photo Credits:
Our club is fortunate to know photographers who understand the sport of ice boating. Some of the names you will see credited are Craig Wilson who dangles his camera from a kite for a unique view from atop the masts; David Travis, a Nite and Skeeter sailor, who knows a thing or two about the art of photography and is the curator for the Museum of Photography at the Art Institute of Chicago; Geoff Sobering who is often seen with his DN parked at the weather mark waiting for that great shot of a mark rounding; Ron Rosten, a long time ice boater who translates his knowledge of the sport into great photos; Renegader Tim Stanton, who shoots some of the sharpest 35 mm photos around; and Grant Frautschi, an avid sailor who never forgets to bring his digital camera.

Red Banks National Sweepstakes
Here are another set of photos from New Jersey's Red Banks National Sweepstakes sailed the previous weekend from Henry Bossett. Henry writes, "This is the full sequence coming into and "trying" to leave the mark. There was a 2nd boat that got involved also.That's Dan Clapp in A1, his family's 'Now Then'"
 

     

     

     


Henry Bossett sends a great series of photos from the Red Banks Sweepstakes sailed in New Jersey over the weekend.

RED BANK — It may be cold and breezy, but it's just the weather needed to draw some sailors out of hibernation.

For the first time in two years, the Shrewsbury Ice Boat and Yacht Club members have what they need to run their National Sweepstakes Regatta — a clear crisp day ensuring below-freezing temperatures and winds measuring 15 to 20 knots.
