Someone went ice boating on the Toronto Harbour and it looks incredible (VIDEO)

Rather than letting the freezing winter weather interfere with enjoying the Toronto Harbour, one Toronto man took advantage of the frozen surface and used it as a way to get around.

In a video posted on Vimeo, an ice boat can be seen gliding across the frozen lake, with picturesque views of the Toronto skyline appearing in the distance.

Given the optimal weather conditions, an ice boat can reach speeds of up to 170 km/hr resulting in a pretty incredible form of winter transportation.

If you’ve never had the chance to see an ice boat operating in full force, check out the remarkable video below.
