Houseboat INSIDER - the September 2014 highlights
September 28, 2014
Hello

September was one of the most peculiar months in my personal recollection in regards to weather extremes. We had extremely warm temperatures, lots of fog, windy & rainy days, and enough abnormally cold weather to cause boaters to start pulling out their boats early… :(

Hopefully October will provide us with an abundance of great boating days, filled with some beautiful fall colors and "above normal" warm temperatures.

What to do this winter?

Since the beginning of winter is only a few months away, many boaters in the northern hemisphere are planning their winter storage options.

Can a house boat freeze in the water Some boat owners leave their boats in water during the freezing winter months.

Here are some tips to what is involved, and how to plan accordingly.

If the lake freezes, what are your options? Here's some points to consider before leaving your boat freeze in a lake versus blocking it on land.



Here's some amazing reader submitted articles…

Now for something a little different, we're fortunate to have received some great articles posted by some of our visitors and readers. Have a look at the links below:

* The monthly houseboat budget, the cost to run or operate?

* Amsterdam houseboats, the canals are simply amazing...

* Fiberglass houseboats, problems with glass delamination?
