Ok for all of you looking for something to do this Saturday 3/1 there is going to be an iceboat race of DN Iceboats at South Watuppa Pond in Fall River MA on Saturday 3/1 starting at 10:30am thru 4:00pm. Launching from the end of Jefferson at the State boat ramp.

For those unfamiliar take the Brayton Ave exit off route 24 immediately after 195 when heading south. At end of ramp go left at light (west) on Brayton ave to first light. Take left onto Jefferson. Stay on this to end thru residential neighborhood around hairpin curve and by warehouses.

Plenty of DN Iceboats will be on hand to gawk at and probably some for sale. Not supposed to be a lot of wind and we may have to wait for what ever wind to fill in so it could be a good time to stop by and check out the boats up close.

If it snows one inch or more Fri night there is a slight chance this may move to Long Pond in lakeville but not likely at this point.

By the way I tried Ice Fly fishing but it is too hard to cast that fly into the little hole as you cruise by it at 30 plus mph...
