What ice ??? or What !!! Ice...


Despite an inch of ice in places, Geoff, Pat and Jean-Olivier took to the water this morning for maintenance checks on dock anchors at Pat's sailing club. The temperature can be guessed at from the pictures, but for the record, rising from an overnight low of about -18C (0F), it was still a bitterly cold -11C (12F) in a fairly penetrating wind. Pat reports the water temperature, clear of ice effects, to have been 36F (2C). Thank Heavens for a little bit of sunshine....
