Check this out...the wife and I went out tonight for a little dancing. The bar was pretty busy and alot of heat was building up in there. Whenever someone opened up the outside door, steam would pour outside. It looked like a fog bank out there.

Just got home. The ride was great. We went 85 miles. The cold really wasn't to bad,until you get up around 75 m.p.h. eek! I have a very expensive set of Arctic-Cat Bibs and Coat. If the cold is coming in its cold.
My friends are in Canada on a trip. They called this morning and the temp was -43 at the Hotel. eek! eek!

I pumped that -50 stuff in mine this fall ( first time ) then drained the block ,I hope that was ok??? I'm used to pulling all the hoses and stuff, but new ways are easier. ( and I hope effective)

Its about 20 degrees in Georgia right now, supposed to get to 5 tonite. My electric bill is going to be thru the roof next month. I don't winterize my cruiser, I use one of those bilge heaters, I hope it can keep up. The Daytona is nice and warm in the basement so no problems there.

Right now its 2 o'clock (the warmest time of the day) and its a sweltering 19 degrees with a 1 degree wind chill. I leave my boat outside also with a cover and a tarp on it. I winterized it for the first time ever this year, I sure hope I did it right. Thanks again to all on the winterizing tips! I sure am missing California about right now and I'm sure the boat feels the same.

Mine is in the garage with heat (only when I go in there to work on it) When is it going to end. Usually I dont get sick of the winter til Feb-Mar. This year Ive been tired of this crap since before X-mas. cry Im just waiting for the Bomber to make his first pass, then Ill know its almost time to launch my boat!!! :cool:

Crossing my frozen fingers in the cold.... wink You should be fine, but I think you are doing it backwards. Drain the block of water, then pump the antifreeze through. Better off not draining the AF until spring, leave it in. Anyway, thats what I do. Actually on my old boat I just drain everything and squirt a few ounces of AF into every drain, have done this 20 years with no problem, and I'm in NH.

I work for a major natural gas company, doing electical and pneumatic controls. Had 18 hrs. overtime in three days. Four hours of sleep from 2am Tues. till Thurs. 7pm. Just so all you people up north could have a little heat. Company loves this weather.
