About a mile or so from our little beach, there's a society that restores ,
keep and built traditional ice-sailboats. Some of them are over 250 years old!
Saw them busy today and wanted to share this with you.

Oh, erg mooi Andre. Bij ons is het ijs nooit van kwaliteit om op te schaatsen/zeilen.
Oh, very nice Andre. Here the ice is never high enough quality to skate/sail on.
