Both Struble and Sherry are from the DIYC (Detroit Ice Yacht Club). I believe both have won the worlds before. The DN is the world standard for ice boating. DN stands for Detroit News which held a design contest about 80 or 100 years ago to see who could come up with the best ice boat design. "Matt Struble, USA claimed the World Championship with a dominating performance in the final race of the series. The remainder of the top five included, 2nd: T. Lindgren from Sweden, 3rd: B. Zeiger from Germany, 4th: Ron Sherry, USA and 5th: John Dennis, USA." Full story is in the link below. http://www.destinationonedesig n.com/prep/index.aspx?subsecti on=486c14aba5754dc4ac57952de91 2b0a0 |
