John,
Good catch on the board. I don't recall your year (model) C27 but if you have an anchor locker I found it particularly troublesome in a rain freeze scenario. It seems no matter what you do water sits in the bottom because of the height of the lip on the drain fitting. I added a product called Dry Deck (normally a cockpit flooring) not only to hold the anchor rode and chain up out of this water but to make it a little ice cube tray. Breaking up the ice sheet keeps it from exerting pressure to crack the anchor locker floor.

Let me know if you want pictures. I'll be heading for my boat this afternoon to check for freeze damage for last nights Austin style hard freeze.
