I know that most the sailors on this form that don't need to deal with ice any larger than fits in your glass would not have much interest in this winter toy.
But for those of us that do need to deal with ice and snow...
I remember watching them race on Wide World of Sports once. I was instantly intrigued. BUT not intrigued enough to move to place where one of those would make sense!
I'm still trying to move someplace where I can ride my motorcycles year round. I've got it in the back of my mind that if I can ride year round then I can also sail year round. Best of both worlds.

Being a lover of winter sports....yes, I'd love to try it!!! To me, a lack of good, dependable winter snow is the biggest drawback to Missouri. Wyoming winters were much more enjoyable.
Very cool! I see some tooling around on the nearby Pewaukee Lake occasionally. Looks fun. Anyone know how well they work once the snow on the lake gets deep?
