So…spring break camping at the lake and winter isn’t giving up. The next couple nights dip into the high 20s. Days still warm up nicely especially on Thursday. With the risk of water freezing and causing damage, should we bring the boat or keep it snug at home in the garage.”?

What @TimW451 said

Just be sure to blow the excess water out of the water locks wit a few blips of the throttle after pulling the boat out. And you have an on board fresh water shower make sure the tank is empty and the wand and hose are empty.

I‘ve been in fishing tournaments with my boat and the daytime highs were less than what the overnight temps you are going to see were. The overnight lows were in the single digits and I had no issues.

Just read your poll question, are you leaving the boat in the water? If so there won’t be any issues.

Thanks all. I’ll have to anchor it out and winds are a bit brisk so snuck under the cover and ran each on the trailer to blow out any lingering water. Forecast low of 31 now but only gets there between 7-8am then back up.
