Heat rises and cold sinks so with the boat in the water and the water 4 or more degree's above freezing the heat from the water will transfer into the motor well which is at or below the water line and should prevent the engine from freezing especially if the daytime temps get above 35 to 36 degrees the sun will warm up the interior of the boat during the day also. The weather channel calls for one night to get down to 32 degree's and every thing else well above freezing in the next 10 days. Accu weather has the lows for 3 days right at or just below freezing for three days( Mon 14th, Tues. 15th and Wed. 16th) everything else is well above freezing. Both are forecasting daytime highs in the lower 40s up to the lower 50s during the colder nights. You should be fine!
I would like to add that the weather is for Port Clinton and the heat rising from the water will dampen the temperature fall in the air! It would be questionable if frost would even form on the windows of your boat that was in the water!!!Last edited by wakina; 04-09-2014 at 09:42 AM.
