Here’s a big picture ice report from the Lake Geneva area via Jane Pegel
Iceboaters.
Here are lakes Geneva and Como in spectacular photos and videos contributed by Peter Shumway 1-27-2018.
Be aware that there are also open areas hidden along the shorelines. Video shots.
And finally, if you’ve ever wanted to see a hovercraft rodeo, look no further than this video link from Jane. (What’s the plural of hovercraft?)

Tim McCormick reports that several Renegade races took place out in the middle of Lake Mendota today. The launch site was moved from Lot 60 to the Baker Street landing which is not in optimal condition. Caution must be used while rolling on trailers on there. Today’s warm weather softened the ice. There was also some shell ice which we hope will freeze solid during tonight’s cold temperatures. Racing will begin at 10 AM in the middle of Lake Mendota tomorrow, Sunday, 27, 2018.
The Wisconsin Skeeters gathered today in Green Bay for some racing. The conditions quite breezy and racing was cancelled due to high winds but some amount of sailing was had by all. The tourney will resume Sunday morning.
Four Lakes Ice Yacht Club racing has been called on for Jan 27 – 28 on Lake Mendota. Launch out of Lot 60. Trailers will be pushed on. First race is 10 AM.
Via Northwest Ice Yacht Regatta Race Committee chairman, Tim McCormick:
The NIYA has been postponed. Next update is January 28.
