So whats the deal with you Northern folks.

Do you pull your boats to keep the ice from crunching them, or it it
just so cold that you never take them anywhere?

Mostly because it's too darn cold to be sailing. Also, when the snow
starts it's a mess getting to the boat and on the boat. Some do leave
them in all winter. Our marina supplies ice bubblers at the docks.
Gotta keep the water system winterized. I hear it's good for the hull
to let it 'dry out' while on the hard.
