Dear Iceboaters,
those of you interested in going to Lake Baikal 2013 should take in early decision. The Cup of Asia will be held from April 5th-7th and the Cup of Baikal from April 8th-12th.

The ice then is usually more than 1 Meter thick and the surface usually clear due to warm weather. Flights to Irkutsk can be arranged individually. There will be a shuttle to the Lake (6 hour drive). To ship the euipment down a container, leaving from Germany or another country (if time permitts directly from the site where the Europeans will take place) will also be arranged. If it has to leave before the Europens, or directly after will be determined until 1st of December. It will be returned at teh beginning of May.
After attending last year I can say that it was an experience of a lifetime!
Since there will be limited space in the container I need to know who is planning on going. Please state if you are definetely going or just considering to go. Considered costs for tranport at the moment are less than 500,-€ per boat. Please send me a mail and I will put you on the list. It is just to see who is interested and who is certain already, since we have to set up a waiting list for the container. Of course you can ship down your boat down with other means yourself. In December we need to know, if you are really going or not. I will get back to you then.
