One of the greatest allies in iceboating is Gretchen Dorian. We have all watched her at the weather mark in bitter cold, waiting for the perfect shot. Her photos have carried this sport around the world. She is running a pre holiday sale on her site through December 15, and it is a good time to support the person who spends as much time on the ice as many of us who race and help with race committee.

You can order prints of your favorite shots or download digital images right away. You can also put them on coffee mugs, Christmas ornaments, coasters, and even fleece blankets. If you want prints delivered before Christmas in the USA, place those orders before December 1. Discounts run as high as forty five percent. These make simple gifts for sailors who already have every tool and every runner in the box.

Take a look at her site, enjoy the savings, and support the photographer who has been telling the story of this sport for years.

4LIYC Meeting News for Nov 19 – Current Fast Champions Iceboat Shop

Current/Past Champions Iceboat Shop Farewell Tour

Please join us for our next 4LIYC Meeting on Wednesday, November 19 at 6:30 PM to take care of business and celebrate the final days of the legendary Whitehorse Iceboat Shop. Word has it that red/white boats will be on display, along with memorabilia you’ve probably never seen.

The longtime home of legendary ice sailors Kenny Whitehorse and Paul Krueger has finally surrendered to developers after decades of keeping the ruthless capitalists at bay.

Fresh off his TV shoot for an upcoming PBS Documentary, Kenny commented, “the shop hasn’t been this clean since the day it was built. Paul and I found runners and sails we’ve been missing since the Nixon administration.”

Outgoing Commodore Daniel Hearn will officially pass the torch to Ron Rosten to kick off the meeting promptly at 6:30. Since Daniel always had too much to say, and Ron on the side of too little, this will be a short meeting.

Bring your appetite for catered Mexican food, adult and minor beverages. Please RSVP, so that we can get a rough count for the food/bev order. RSVP by emailing: debwhitehorse@iceboat.org
