The Frozen Few
Seasons
Winter "Frostbite" Racing
Edgewood Sailing School and Edgewood Yacht Club support a vibrant fleet of over a dozen frostbite sailors who sail Sunfish on Sundays from October through April, including Columbus Day and New Year's Day regattas, and the annual "Up From The Ashes" regatta which commemorates recovery from club-house fire of 2011. Edgewood Sailing School can help you get safely started with this challenging and rewarding winter sport. The Frozen Few also welcome spectators to cheer on racers.

Columbus Day Regatta 2015
We had great weather for the start of the Sunfish season. Winds started around 7 knots and gradually built to 11-14, with a few gusts as high as 16. Stephanie kept score, Wayne took photos, and Justin skippered the mark/safety boat. Greta suffered a brief indignity when her hiking strap broke, but got back in her 'fish and finished the regatta.
