Type of watercraft:

Got a note that the boat had a suspicious list to port!
That was concerning because my boat lists a few degrees to starboard. I pictured a few hundred pounds of new, very cold water ponding up below on the port side for some serious, ungodly reason.
So a big sigh of relief when I finally got to the club approx. 0915 hrs. Air temp 26 F. A bit of an issue getting the companionway open, due to it being iced in place. But all in all, it was a successful trip - got my solar panel clear of snow and ice and producing electricity. Got in a quick paddle to check ice levels in the creek. Solid up to an inch in isolated protected spots, mostly just slushy brash elsewhere.
Fun paddle!
