Exclamation Check Your Bilge Drains!

You dry store guys may want to go check your bilge drain holes for freezing. I checked mine last Sunday and I had a nice nut of ice clogging up the works. I poked it out with a long metal letter opener.

I also shoveled what had to be half a ton of snow off the boat. It is not covered this year, which it turns out, is a good thing. The scuppers are iced in, which will bear keeping an eye on. At least the snow is out for the most part.

One other thing: I expected to see a big pile of snow on the t-top, but it was all blown off by the 50 knot winds of the last storm.
