Lloyd and Roger rambled down to Lower bay on Sebago today and were rewarded for their efforts with the discovery of one inch of new black ice. A guy with binoculars there could see white caps on the open water way out there, but the bay itself is locked in.

They will go back in the morning to skate and scout, with plans to sail on Friday.

Leavetts Beach on Winnipesaukee flashed two inces in the last couple of days and there will be skaters and Skimbats there tomorrow.

Stand by for a great weekend!
