Ice on the River!

It has been cold in the Hudson Valley over the last week plus...
Club members have been scouting ice for over a week and finally settled on a plate off of Barrytown - basically where we sailed from last winter.
Vixen, Reindeer & Puff are on the ice along with a couple of Arrows. Find your way to the old Barrytown Post Office and use good judgement crossing the RR tracks and finding access to the ice.
I haven't been there yet- too busy with school work. Hoping to launch next weekend.
Incredible that we are sailing on the river again!  Be safe.

Haven't had a chance to get photos from this week. But always can find some great images from the past to share...

Ice Queen and Ariel in a tandem hike on Great South Bay a few years back.
Recently re-discovered this great shot by HRIYC sailor Glen Burger.

Chris Vargo (R) & the late John Rose (L) ready to push off in the
Arrow fleet race at Red Bank in 1999. A pair of these 2 seater fiberglass bow steerers
are sailing on the river at Barrytown now.
