Had to scrape ice off the car windscreen this morning and it got me thinking about winterizing the boat as I'll be down this weekend.
Given the shortage of hardstanding in Cardiff Bay, my impression is that most boats stay in the (fresh) water for most of the winter has anyone know of any issues from freezing water tanks, calorifiers, pipework, raw water side of the engine?
What is a locals view of best practice in terms of what should be done when?
My boat is likely to be out on the hard during January and February, but in the water the rest of the time and there should be no osmosis issues.
I am fortunate in that I am only one hours drive away so can get down most weekends.
What do people do?
