Where Are We Post Monday Sail?
A great day was had by many on Monday. Getting out across several locations. From Quaboag Pond to Massabesic lake and on Lake Winnipesaukee off Leavitt’s beach. While we are well into our season we are a little behind in building thickness, so please always confirm that conditions are sound and sail heads up till you are very sure of conditions. And of course always inquire about known hazards.
Nine boats sailed today, light winds in the morning, black ice with some crud. Wind picked up in the afternoon and made for some great sailing.
Two boats still on the pond and others may come, may be the last time this week. Remember there is a lion’s club fishing derby sat 27th. I will keep checking it and give a report if it comes around again.

As most of you know there is a change in the weather moving through. How will it effect our ice? Talk of and forecasting weather is a constant din for us all and i’m sure a topic of discussion Thursday night.
Think Ice,

John, From whom did you hear of sailing on Massabesic? I would like to be in touch with that person as I live a bit over an hour away in Hancock, NH. Cobbly, bumpy snow ice here in the Monadnock region, bone shaker material. Thanks. Tom Gloudemans CIBC
