Hey Joe,
That is normal clear weather dock conditions for
a weekend boat check around here, just above the
Pacific North West. Except we don't have none of
those ice thingies. One of the reasons we don't
mind the rain so much... no frost.
BTW, it doesn't matter how far away the ladder
is. With water that cold you could fall in right
next to the ladder and ya ain't getting yer own
ass outta there. In a winter around here it isn't
unusual to lose one or two old guys in a year, recovered in the marina.
Happy New Year & cheers, Russ

I went down to the boat last night to turn the
ice eater off and turn the cabin heat down. It
was above freezing all day, but a layer of dew
settled on everything and the temperature had
dropped from 33 to 30 as the sun set. A
super-slick layer of ice froze onto everything
including the dock and there are no ladders I
can swim to if I fall in that arenât at least a couple hundred feet away.
