We have had four days of temperatures well below freezing. NUDGE is safely berthed in her garage. The marina has water jets to keep water moving around the boats and once a day they run a small outboard power boat around the marina to break up ice just outside the slips. The ducks have discovered the water jets and mill about smartly in the only unfrozen water. Fred installed a heater designed for engine room spaces that goes on automatically when the temp drops below 50° and holds the temp at 40°. So far, works like a charm.

Looking forward to spring….
