Re: [Liveaboard] test 'bella,
Need to come further north. We have had slush here but no ice. Mayber the fact that the hudson river is always in motion helps. LOL. Now Morris Canal I hear froze up, but that is what bublers are for :D N.Y.

Boat is Florida registered and I am a resident.. took a nursing contract up here.. Ya know.. this is just over the top...last night I heard that crrrruuunnnch..I was asleep, I instantly sorta kinka woke up.. sat up and slammed my head into the overhead.. swung around and slid off the bed and put my left foot in the icky litterbox.. sorta stumbled into the main salon and found nothing.. Today I got out in the dingy that I sat ON the ice till I got in it and it sorta kinda fell through the ice.. with an hatchet and chopped ice from around the boat. Of course it will be frozen again by morning.. at least I will have a night witouth that awesome crunch sound. Thank goodness she is 44 yrs old and built to withstand this sort of stuff..

REPLY Ice in Florida? Ya gotta be kidding! Now I got an ice problem! Engine has -30C anti-freeze in the coolant circuit. .... but ..... This morning it froze in the radiator. Why? Because at highway speeds it chilled to -60C and even full strenght anti-freeze isn't good enough for that. A hose popped and steam cleanded my engine compartment since the radiator was plugged with ice. I dumped about 3 liters before I got the leak plugged. So now I have the rad plugged off and the engine wrapped in reflectix. We have us what they call an Arctic inflow situation. -60 cold air spills down from the arctic and chills everything down to about lat 30 to varying degrees.
