Title: Arrive 'n' drive iceboating
Post by: MikeBz on January 15, 2008, 10:02:17 AM
Here in the UK there are a number of places where you can pay some £s to try land-yachting.  I have done this, it's a great fun alternative to my usual soft-water sailing/racing.  I would like to try iceboating one day - obviously it's not something I will get regularly involved in, but are there any places in the world where one can turn up and pay to try iceboating?
