    Great video. I learned how to sail there in the mid 80's. Many happy memories. Some time I'll have to put my stuff in the Van and drive in.

  • Clear Lake, IA does look good. I see a City Beach Park and boat ramp. Jim Nagel may know more. Another lake also on a high flat spot is Storm Lake, IA. I'm looking at AWAYSIS Park. Always a good sign when a lake needs breakwalls...muhahaha.

  • Anybody ever sailed at Clear Lake, IA? Was up there over the weekend for a show at the Surf Ballroom. Lake looks great and they say it is one of the best sailing lakes in Iowa. Any comments appreciated.

  • In Princeton, we had a buddy who lived at the North end of River drive. I think the land between the road and river is public. If not, there is a small park along that road. The yacht club had some great guys when we lived there so that might be a good option.
    I love the Volar! What a great board!!

  • Rich, also looks like you have a Goya Volar. I love mine, a great board!

  • Rich, thanks for the info. They are building a new I-74 bridge right now, so not sure there will be any sailing there. If I can get my foiling together, I may try down at the Davenport Yacht Club since they sail some small boats there. Where did you go in Princeton?

  • Hi Ed - We went to school in Davenport in the 90s and sailed often on the Mississippi right under the I-74 bridge Leach Park (worked for straight West for some reason) and at the Ben Butterworth Parkway boat ramp for SW days. We'd go up to Princeton for N or S days. Not sure how the pollution is nowadays but seemed to be ok way back then.
