Temp is dropping Monday night

Post by jhalb »

The temp will get to the mid 20's Monday night. I opened my sea cocks and ran my heater/air last weekend. Do I need to worry about the temp for one night? What about a marine heater or leaving a light on in my engine compartment?

I doubt it would have much effect on the inside of the boat on one night especially if the day warms up.....
As there is no air current through the boat that outside temperature drop is not likely to migrate far inside the boat in one night....

Where do you keep your boat in the St. Louis area?
