That looks like a lot of fun ........

Here on the west cost, they have sail carts, they sail them on dry lakes or even large parking lots.

Very cool. I think I just read an article on the restored "Rocket". 900 sft of sail and what beautiful wood work. I'll see if I can dig up the article. Thanks,

Yes,
One of the videos in that group that Egaleye provided had other ice boats, one was called "furniture ice boat" . The wood work was incredible . It featured the Rocket and several other ice boats.
