Stus-List Whining over short lake superior sailing season.
I'll second what Fred said. The first race of the season is Memorial weekend and there have been years we had to cancel due to ice flows being in the way. That sucks. With how march has been so far, this year has all the makings of repeating that. September is absolutely the best time IMHO. When October is good, it's really good. When it's bad, it's really bad.

So we pack a lot into a very short season. September is usually pretty nice, and even early October can be good. But if you haven't hauled by Halloween, the Gales of November will get you...

While growing up (in Wisconsin), I had to walk through 10 foot snow drifts to get to the marina. And we didn't even have a boat.
