3 ITEM #3 A DAY ON THE HARD WATER ICE BOATING (3 Boats/3 Separate Bids) Donated by: P/C Dave Heitzenrater; P/C Matt Niemic; Scott Heitzenrater If you are looking for an exciting ride, this is it! You are bidding on what could be a very unique and exciting day on the hard water of Presque Isle Bay cruising along on a Sweet Sixteen ice boat. An S-16 is a comfortable (as much as ice boats are) 16 long craft seating two persons. If you didn t know, an ice boat is powered only by the wind against the sail just as any soft water sailboat. The boat rests on three steel runners which unlike an ice skate are ground to a sharp point where the runner meets the ice. Once the boat starts moving the apparent wind moves forward and remains there even when the boat is traveling down wind. An ice boat is capable of accelerating very quickly and when combined with the fact that the craft sits just inches above the ice can make an exhilarating ride experience. Bring your skiing duds, warm boots and gloves. We will supply the excitement. The day on the ice will be during our ensuing winter on a date agreeable to the bidder however we are obviously subject to local wind and ice conditions. The date may be postponed as required until conditions are acceptable. The successful bidder is to Dave Heitzenrater at dddd@neo.rr.com to schedule this memorable day on the hard water Minimum bid each boat $250
