While our recent snowfall is unusual (we got 30" about 50 miles north of D.C.), having several nights of very low temps is a pretty common occurrence during the winter in this area.
Does the water at your slip normally freeze during the winter? Do you usually use bubblers to keep the water moving?
I think it would make me very uncomfortable to see my boat in the water with ice around it. 😱

Our marina has a few bubblers that they are supposed to move around - but they rarely do. They did not during the storm. Today it was 50 deg so the ice is already melted again. Last year it froze a couple times hard and I planned on getting our own bubbler but I did not. At least this year I did not procrastinate and I got our R-31 shrink wrapped. It was warm and dry inside (relatively)
