Tim Carlson of Sailcrafters is hosting his 8th Annual Ice Boat Swap Meet on Saturday, November 5, 2016. 10 am to 1pm. This swap met is popular with the Minnetonka, White Bear and Bald Eagle sailors. There promises to be lots of DN and Nite equipment along with several complete packages. If we are lucky we may even see a C-Skeeter courtesy of “Drifter.” Anyone looking to upgrade equipment or buy a complete boat is encouraged to attend.

The Skeeter Iceboat Club is hosting its 31st Annual Swap meet Sunday, October 30, 2016, 9am to noon. This is the Grand Daddy of all swap meets. More equipment changes hands at this swap meet than all others combined. There will be Skeeters, Renegades, Arrows, Nites, DN’s and who knows what else. Boat builders and hardware manufacturers all set up displays. If you want to buy or sell something (or simply shoot the bull!) this is the place to be. All the big names of iceboating show up for this one.

Tim Carlson at Sailcrafters http://sailcrafters.com/ has announced the date for this years Iceboat swap for the Twin Cities area.

I have two rocket masts.

I looking to sell both of mine to finance a new mast from Ronny.

One has never been used. Although it needs the hound glued in it. I always raced with the other one.

One has been cut down and is about 4 or 5 inches shorter than the regular rocket. Makes it fits inside an E350 with a little room to spare. It's also had a little fairing and paint.
