SAILING INSTRUCTIONS
Via Western Region Commodore Chris Berger US5166
Bob Cummins and I sailed Twin Lake in Phelps, WI today. We found 6 – 7″ of ice everywhere we drilled. The lake is covered in light powdered snow. We had no trouble sailing on inserts in 6 – 8 knots of breeze. There were slight bumps on some areas of the lake but it wasn’t rough.

Via Central Region Commodore Pete Johanson US5633
Unfortunately, I am cancelling 2023 Central Region Championship. The ice is not currently safe and temperatures do not get below freezing until this weekend. Thank you to the ice checkers!
Keep your calendars marked for the 2024 Central Region Championship scheduled for January 13 – 14, 2024!
Happy New Year!
Think Ice!
