Not quite frostbiting in the way we New Englanders understand it though, I think. I was down in Bristol RI on New Years Day once when the diehards at the local club were dinghy racing through snow squalls. (I've never been tempted by frostbiting myself, by the way. My few experiences of early-November sailing cured me of any desire I ever had to sail in January.) Nice to see folks out sailing whatever the temperature. Thanks.
