[QUOTE="nickt, post: 252760, member: 4923"] I was fortunate to grow up around a small lake. There have always been iceboats out there every winter. They prefer when the ice is like glass. Sometimes that means warm weather and thin ice. I've seen them out there when no fisherman will brave the ice. There are a number of these old wooden ice boats still around along with some nearby Hudson River iceboat clubs that are still active. Many of these old wooden boats were originally built in the 1800's and went through some restores and rebuilds over the years. I found this youtube video this morning trying to dig up some history.
