Ryan, I’d be surprised if there was a problem with freezing. I know on my boat that basically the water just drained out a few days after the haul. Others may chip in here with better ideas which is the beauty of this list.
Were it me, and take that with a grain of salt given my track record of ignoring obvious problems, I would just wait until Spring maintenance to deal with the keel. Unless of course you are being chased by a million tasks that need to get done yesterday in order to go sailing. ;-) Best, Dave Godwin 1982 C&C 37 - Ronin Reedville - Chesapeake Bay Ronin’s Overdue Refit <http://roninrebuild.blogspot.com/> > On Dec 7, 2015, at 6:28 PM, Ryan Doyle via CnC-List <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Thanks for your reply Dave.
