Ice sailing has a handful of commercial builders, unlike soft water boats. A few commercial builders serve the DN class, and the Nite Class has one. Swap meets are crucial to the sport. Swap meets are like big box iceboat stores where you can see a variety of iceboats and parts for sale in person. Swap meets are essential to commercial builders and the iceboating community. Support your local upcoming swap meet!
