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.

Frostbite racing results for 1/9/2011

Strong gusty winds made the sailing in the first race challenging, and at least two boats capsized during the course of the race. The committee boat had to leave the line during the race to assist a boat in distress, so the skippers reported their own finishing positions. The race committee is grateful for the assistance of Jeff Lanphear, who abandoned the first race in order to assist another boat. In recognition of his generosity, he has been assigned 3rd place in that race as redress.
