This is a sketch of the front of the boat, with Christmas tree at the side.
The canal was completely iced over this morning. We heard a rumbling and cracking and about 10 minutes later a boat came past. The noise it makes as the ice cracks and grinds against our boat is almost deafening.

Is it dangerous to your boats to be iced in, for several weeks, I mean. I wonder about the force of the ice as it breaks up, rubbing against the wood.

How wonderful to live on a boat! Ice must have been quite thick to make a lot of noise.
Love this sketch, great lines.... the story of the ice is scary... I too would be concerned about damage from ice YIKES.
I don't think the ice damages the stationery boats, but it can take off the paint when a boat is actually moving and ploughing through it. I think the ice is about half an inch thick but it's amazing what noise it can make...
shame you didn't draw the ice,you would have done a great job,i'm sure,love your latest drawings...so relaxed
been skating yet?
