| I wasn't out in this dumper, but have been out to lows of 20F. It's too
cold when the sea freezes on your sail, and your eyebrows look like
popsicles. Sailing in snow is more common in temps around 30F and really a
lot of fun. There was a Thanksgiving storm where I had to try a new board
and sail combo. I trudged through about a foot of freshies and had a short
sail. Much easier to sail than raindrops, a.k.a BBs.

I've been caught in a snow squall or two after I had started sailing. Just
like sailing in the rain only colder.
As it's 10F today I doubt anyone's been out in this!

I've spent most of my money on mountain biking and windsurfing.
The rest, I've just wasted.
