winter

When we lived aboard, we shrinkwrapped the boat every winter. If you can find it, use the clear shrink wrap, that way you acan take advantage of the greenhouse effect.

Also put fiberglas batts down on the deck and you won''t have to worry about condensation on the headliner. One additional improvement we made on this system was to put the fiberglass into black plastic garbage bags.

We found that we often had too much heat. We Often left the door to the cover open in an attempt to ''vent'' off the extra heat we created.

All this and we were living aboard in Toronto. Jan often has a day or too when you wake up and it''s -25c outside.
