The wind did not cooperate or obey the computer wind models this weekend (February 13 – 15.) Nobody got chilly, but the DNs and A skeeters got only two races in, and the Renegades, Stern Steerers and B/C Skeeters only got one. The races sailed are discarded, and we start from scratch starting Friday February 27th.

The locations possible range from somewhere on Green Bay, through Madison and out to Lake Pepin.

February 12, 2026: Junior Iceboat in NY

by | Feb 12, 2026 | sell

Small iceboat perfect for kids! I purchased this when my kids were 8 and my daughter sailed in it last winter at 15. It has a small flat cut sail that keeps the power down and a hand brake to boost everybody’s confidence! Aluminum mast, Sarns style alligator plate runners, cockpit cover included. I am selling this for what I bought it for to move it on to the next upcoming skippers – at $850 this is about the cost of the runners! If you are thinking about buying it for just the runners – please don’t make an offer – this is for the kids.

Boat is in great shape and located in Hammondsport, NY (Finger Lakes). We could possibly arrange transportation between iceboaters travelling to regattas.

Pictures of the boat close up and by my kids (for sizing) available.

$850 US
