Learn to Sail @ Your Library

The Neenah Public Library recommends the following book:

Link to August 3 Appleton Post-Crescent article, "Boat remains submerged in Fox River after sinking in Neenah".

Excerpt:    NEENAH.  A small sailboat that went over a dam on its maiden voyage Sunday will remain submerged in the Fox River for a while.

Police and fire officials said the water is too high and too fast to attempt to salvage the boat, which is submerged but visible near Neenah Paper

Flunker said they swam to shore near the public library. He said they had just bought the boat that afternoon, and winds and inexperience sailing caused them to strike the bridge.
