With the threat of actual freezing temps in the offing, I have changed the
light bulbs in engine room, lazarrette, and fly bridge console from CFL to
hotter filament-style. I also drained the windshield wash water from that
system, and set up an electric oil-filled heater on timer to come on during
the night hours.
That's about it, unless it gets really cold, at which time I will turn on
the water heater and the reverse cycle air conditioners for the duration of
the really bad weax (usually only a day or two at a stretch).
That's about what it takes for this part of the world.
