A homely dwelling makes one happy indeed. Yours is a fine example. And living as you do, I think solitarily, is how I wish I can do too. Thank you for sharing your lovely life.

Thank you! Snow and ice is beautiful to look at, but, for boats, it can really be a problem!

I really enjoyed this, I am a brit living in Sweden for the last six years, I have recently bought a Beneteau and keep it a little South in Västervik, it rarely gets ice but it is possible so I began looking for tips and advice when I found your channel. I am also renovating my old 10 metre steel motor boat which I plan to move back up to Stockholm as a sort of floating apartment, in there I have room for a kamin, I have a husqvarna 153 that will do the job perfectly, unfortunately there is no such possibility to do this in the Sailing boat but it would of been nice, I do however have electricity and nice warm shower and laundry machines in the harbour office only twenty metres away. I will now avidly check out your other videos. Stay warm Linda!

We get ice storms at least once/winter - and sometimes as often as 3-4 times - been doing that as long as I remember - which is over 60 years. Spring, summer, fall and winter. It's not climate change you're seeing - it's a change in the circulation. There are a number of patterns that happen on a regular basis. Some every 10 years, some every 30, etc. I'm using those numbers as an example - like La Nina and El Nino. Not climate change. Regular, normal circulation patterns we've known about for a very long time.

Hi! In this marina, there is a toilet. And the water was frozen around 3-4 weeks. And my holding tank is over 100 liters, I custom made it as big as I could fit, since when I have courses, we are five people onboard. There is a guy here with a huge ship, he even rents out cabins. He orders a sludge suction truck. That might be a solution if you are many who can share. And their hose is very long...

Hi Linda I was just watching your show where you are living aboard during the winter, I noticed that you were using or I should say "re using" clear plastic juggs, now I am all for recycling and reusing when permitted and when its safe but in this case you must be very very careful because most juggs that are sold for single use (clear most off all) actually break down and mix with the good water that you are using, there are spiceal marks that mean certian things on the bottom of all plastic containers now i dont know all the meanings of these but im sure you can look these up to see if its safe or not, i do know that many people have gotton very very sick from doing ecactly what it is you are, please look into this because i would hate to see you get sick. thank you and i enjoy your show

Hej Linda! Inspirerande video. Du nämner att det finns två sätt att ha båten i vatten under vintern. Det första alternativet att använda el för att ha systemet igång. Jag undrar om det blir väldigt dyrt att ha el på vintern? Alltså hur mycket el drar en sådan uppvärmning ungefär?

@LindaLindenauSailing

6 ай бұрын

Tack för att du gillade videon! Tyvärr kommer jag inte ihåg förbrukningen. Det är inte så dyrt att baea ha några grader så det inte fryser. De flesta vintrar är det inte många dagar med riktig kyla. Men ska du bo i båten går det åt mycket el. Båtar är ju inte isolerade. Det är det tristaste, jag visar väl i filmen hur några byggt små hus av presenningar utanpå. Det sparar mycket el men du ser ju inte längre ut, och då försvinner en av de bästa sakerna med att bo på båt. Det finns en grupp på FB om att bo på båt. De har nog bättre koll på förbrukningen

Hej! Är det något speciellt material du har använt som skrovisolation? (det som ser ut som typ sovmadrass). + Tror du att det fungerar att värma med bara elektricitet? Blir avfuktare onödigt om man bara har nog värme? Jag ska bo mitt första år och min första vinter i segelbåt nu (fast Kristiansand i södra Norge, tror inte den blir så kall) - så det verkar vara mycket att vara beredd på ⛵

Jag har liggunderlag, och nåt annat liknande som jag hittade på ett byggvaruhus. Har använt det mest inne i skåp och garderoben. Jag är inte så känslig för fukt, så jag tycker luften är ok. Men det blir lätt mycket kondens i skåp. Har fått tips om att lägga bubbelplast på däck, och kanske en presenning över. Och att det finns nåt slags tunn, självhäftande plast som man kan klistra på fönsterkarmarna, för att liksom göra tvåglasfönster

Wouldn't it save you a lot of work and aggravation to put a tarp over your boat so that the ice doesn't accumulate (and provides extra insulation)?

@LindaLindenauSailing

Please excuse me for the late answer! I had a tarp from the mast and backwards. But some other boats here, built a wooden construction, that they put a tarp over, so it held almost tight against the hull. I beleive that saves lots of electricity :) Next year I will do like that.

Who in the world would want to listen to a pump doing that? Drove me nuts in less than 30 seconds. Some sailors say hull in ice is not a problem, others work hard to keep ice from hull. From your knowledge, why care if ice is against the hull?

I didnt hear the pump from inside, thats why I had to go out to check. The ice is not a problem if it doesnt move. I have had the boat in ice in a narrow strait, several years. But here, there are ferries outside, and the swell goes in under and breaks the ice into sharp and heavy pieces, that bounces and chafe the hull.

The on going discussion of ice and boats,, well from an experienced boat builder and maintenance guy... Two variables come into play, 1) flow of water, if you have a current then your going to do more work the ice will break and rub, this happens with other winter boat traffic as well but a little diligence just clearing the shards away. 2) would be lake locked or lagoon locked where no boat traffic, no or little water flow or disturbance, this instance a boat can be locked in ice all winter providing the ice shifts very little. Personally I prefer bubblers installed around boats it certainly reduces the risks
