Flathead is a nice big lake and can have some big weather to match--
probably a little like Lake Pend Oreille in that regard. Be prepared!

There's
an active racing group there and a sailmaker in a little town about
the
center of the lake on the W side.
Of course, this is about 25 year-old info, in fact it was right
after the
Mt.St. Helens explosion. We had to dust the ash off his front porch
to sit
down and drink some Jim Beam! A good memory.

Subject: M_Boats: Flathead lake, Montana sailing
Hi,
We have a friend getting married near Flathead lake in Montana and
are
thinking about trailoring our M17 from Seattle to make a mini
vacation of
the trip.
Have any of you sailed Flathead lake? I would be interested to
hear about
your experience.
