iceboat
Wind-powered winter vessel
An iceboat is a lightweight craft with runners or blades that travels over frozen surfaces, propelled by sails or wind.
Ice yachts built for speed can move faster than the wind driving them.
The term also applies to a sturdy vessel designed to break through ice: The iceboat cleared a channel for shipping.
