[C320-list] Lake racing anyone?

[Scott Thompson]

I would pick Lake Geneva without knowing much about the others because 
of the nice summer weather. I went to graduate school at the University 
of Wisconsin, and Lake Mendota in Madison WI was a wonderful place to 
sail in the summer. Can't comment on the others, but sailing on Mendota 
delayed my PhD for at least a year. There is some keelboat sailing there 
but it's mostly high performance scows and smaller dinghies. Another 
large Wisconsin lake with sailing is Winnebago.
