Extreame Artic Temps. what to do

hey, just to let you all know, OUT OF EXPERIENCE..

If any-of you have outdoor animals <mostly cats> i suggest you call them, or find them...... if they get hurt or deside to sleep somewere, they probably wont make it thru the night, or without a bad cold....if so, they will need a vet visit

My cat <"FATCAT"> just came in, wraped him up in a blanket, paws were frozen stiff almost


just don't want to hear any missing animal storys


while on the topic of the effects of cold on a cat what about my boat?

This is the coldest temp i can remember in a LONG time; is this okay for fiberglass, my starcraft isn't goin' to crack if ice forms in there will it (strong fiberglass) ?? i have a mooring cover on it, but water/ice still finds it's way in there


thanks
Mike

Better make sure there is no water accumulting in her.

When ice forms in an enclosed space it exerts a HUGE amount of force and will crack fiberglass.

Make sure there is drainage where water might try to collect.

If it is dry, it should not have a problem.


All the water out of the power ???
