Late this afternoon, after a ferocious tropical onslaught, our plate popped out the other end in remarkedly good shape. 2.5” of hard black ice. A net loss of two inches. Small drain holes, as can be seen above. The surface is dry.

The forecast suggests Wednesday-Thursday will be the best days this week. Sadly, the weekend looks warm, and then rain moving in again. Friday might be ok, but until the entire lake is scouted we won’t know.

It might be completely un-sailable, but at this point there are a few folks planning to set up at Goulds Landing Wednesday morning. Ready? RSVP 975-6980 svp.

Do I actually need to tell you this is Pushaw Pond in Orono?
