Buffalo lakes are unsuitable. Mille Lacs and Gull being checked/sailed now. Standby for final call on or off.

I stand on my assessment; Lake Pulaski, Buffalo, MN is in excellent spring sailing conditions... considering the maximum fleet size for multiply postponed regatta, the lake size is more than ample.... if better is available, great... in my mind, you don't have a lot of credibility on the road right now.

No doubt some will sail Minnetonka, there was talk by the stern steerer guys about this weekend, some of us may return to Lake Calhoun, it's pretty amazing there, just the people watching part, access is a little more difficult there than Tonka.
I've heard rumors of guys sailing Friday on Minnetonka as well.
