Sixty years of prairie sailing

On August 5, 1965, at 10:20 in the morning, a handful of sailors incorporated the Manitoba Sailing Association in a downtown Winnipeg law office. Two Pan Am Games and a world boardsailing championship in Gimli later, the story is still being written by clubs, volunteers and kids in Optimists.
