HARD FREEZE!
Guys according to WALB in Albany is is supposed to be 17 degrees here Thursday night and 18 Friday night. I am sure it will be a deep freeze even south of here in the Big Bend. You guys make sure your dogs and boats are protected!

Re: HARD FREEZE!
This might be a dumb question but what do I need to do to the boat?
I assume lower the motor and make sure all the water is drained out but what else?

Gonna have to remember to take some ice out of my Ice machine so it will keep running all night.

I hang a 100 watt light bulb next to the foot. For temps below 20, I also hang a blanket or tarp over the motor to help hold in the heatReel Cowboy wrote:This might be a dumb question but what do I need to do to the boat?

Also, if you have a water seperator, make sure to empty any water out of it

Re: HARD FREEZE!
I have a hair drier that I keep in my shop, just to melt the ice away from the switches on the boat
