Ice Boating



A new winter sport for our family is iceboating... a sailboat on skates that skims over the ice. More pics to follow!

That looks like a great time. I have a catamaran frame and sail that I would love to get set up for this type of activity. Are the runners on your sled metal or wood?

you'll need some sort of steering mechanism for the catamaran so i'm not sure retrofitting a sailboat would work.

check out these video clips:
