Sailing on Lake Pend Oreille Idaho USA aboard an Oday



Super light winds on lake Pend Orielle Idaho USA aboard a O'Day daysailer. During most of the video we are using an electric motor to return to the dock. This lake has great winds a lot of time but this day was one of those days one wished there was wind.

Lake Pend Oreille if you do not know is a little over 1500 feet deep (457.2 meters) which includes a Naval base that tests submarine technology. Learn more about this lake at this link... http://funtosail.blogspot.com/2016/10/lake-pend-oreille-bonner-kootenai.html

The O'Day daysailer is a beautiful little 14 foot sailboat with wide cockpit, weighted centerboard, and ample sail area to get the boat moving a good wind. This boat is a 1977 and still in great shape with original sails.
