Capabil de peste patru ori viteza vântului, un iaht de gheață DN poate atinge 100 km/h, iar într-o flotă de 50 de bărci vitezele de închidere sunt atât alarmante, cât și îmbătătoare. Fost marinar finlandez, David Howlett a antrenat trei echipe la cinci medalii de aur olimpice, inclusiv Ben Ainslie. Dar după 24 de ani de muncă pentru succesul altor oameni, el își folosește timpul liber pentru a lucra singur și a trecut la cursele cu DN. El explică pentru The World Sailing Show ce face ca iahturile pe gheață să funcționeze și de ce a devenit atât de captivat.

Hey👍
LaaaAAAaaabs!
Show us the other classes of ice boats please , there are much faster than that .
Finally some recognition for iceboating
Kia ora
Awesome
the shape of that rig under load made me feel queasy
Never seen a truer example of an apparent wind boat. I dont think there was a single time where someone wasn't sheeted in block on block
Teşekkürler.
What do you mean by "kph"? Not knots, right?
Of course this is a thing and of course it's awesome.
100kph? Cars regularly go at that speed… often more than that. The narrator says you feel like approaching the speed of sound?
I am bit confused. 100 kph doesnt seem much, is nowhere near speed of sound (1235kph)
More, please!
Sailed a DN as a young man in Walled Lake back in the '70's. Great fun until you hit a block of ice from a fishing shanty.
So that ice is flat, right?
amazing to think that the 75ft foiling yachts are now doing these speeds
Do we know what DN stands for?
My Father was Commodore of KEWASA ice yacht club in the 60's. Finger Lakes Region, Upstate NY.👍
the one thing missing from breath of the wild
👍👍⛵
a wonderful day of iceboating, made MORE wonderful by the sounds of the Bard Brass Band!
I have a DN 120 for sale right now for anyone that's interested. I'm in eastern Maine. Reply for details. Thanks
That would be too cool if you weren't cold or fell through the ice.
I had a sail car that I had rolling along at 45 mph
when your face is some 2 feet off the ground it really seems to fly by
Cuts to black are not transitions.
"yachting"
This video makes it look so dangerous. We used to iceboat a lot. Everyone loved the speed and the thrills it gave. We were 8-9 year olds back then. Times were so much more simple.
Ah yes
I rode on an ice boat made from a windsurfer sail and mast, a triangle of plywood and some bracing, with three rough machined blades made of 1/4" steel, and that's pretty much it.
Sailed in on ice much too rough to ice skate on, no problem, at terrifying speeds, on Lake Pocotopaug in East Hampton CT.
My point is, it doesn't have to be high tech or expensive!
Weed is illegal, and this isn't?
"Good luck, 47."
This definitely falls into the "Why am I watching this" category
35 knots in 5 knots of wind? I call BS!
I'm going to be the first person to sail all the way from pole to pole with one of these and a small island cruiser.
I love this

Not clear to me how you can run faster than wind, the same wind is pushing you… (?)
I grew up in Michigan..I remember seeing these guys ripping it out on the lakes in the cold…Looks fun!
