	@Renegade You mentioned Baikal Lake in the thread about Titicaca. There is an annual iceboat race on Baikal, which could be used as the basis for a SOL race. All we would need is polars for an iceboat. Ice boats can go very fast, so it would probably be fun. What do you think? See: https://www.idniyra.org/2019/10/13/dn-sailing-on-lake-baikal-in-march-2020/ I found info about iceboat polars in "Physics of Sailing: https://tinyurl.com/y9nfzjvd --- Last Edited by Zorba777 at 2020-06-28 09:53:22 --- --- Last Edited by Zorba777 at 2020-06-28 09:53:56 ---

	Hi Zorba, You might be surprised to find that SOL has been sailing a DN Iceboat polar annually for some years now on Lake Winnebago with the Neenah-Nodaway Yacht club. The boat is super fast. David / Renegade
