Hi Warren,

I'm sorry to read that your season has been cut short, Warren.  

A friend is back in Halifax visiting his Mom and hopes to be able to try a DN while there.  He's an experienced solo soft water sailor (Finns, Lasers).  Would you be able to put him in touch with a sailor who could get him in a boat for a (not literally) spin?


Much appreciated if you can help him out.

Thanks very much. I'll let Nick know. 

We moved to Ottawa last year, great ice then and looking like it will be again.  Having sold my DN before the move, looks like my skates are the only blades that will be on the ice.  The canal was superb.

Thanks again 

David
