Found you at the CENTAUR site thru the AOPA WEB SITE. Bravo. My dad had the biggest and fastest ice boat in central N.Y. USA. We have a 21 mile long lake here that runs east to west so when the winds are out of the north to north west it gives us a long run. However ice conditions are always the big issue. You can wait months---no years for the ideal conditions. The WIND-JET looks like a model proto that I built in my teen years in 1956. I had the dream of setting speed records for Ice and land but dad and I had to work on things that would put food on the table. My hat is off to you people and so glad to see your design that confirms the dreams of years ago. Like Mark Twain said "the things you wish you had done". Robert F. Hurd 11550 River Rd.
