kickingfrog Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Wonder how thick the ice was? Great structure if it had gone through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernie Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) I hauled this across the lake on 16" of blue ice. The boathouse is 18'X24'. Edited February 1, 2009 by Bernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiel Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 I remember that "big move" Bernie. Ice is indeed very strong and of course it's buoyant. I remember an ole hut operator on Simcoe telling me (years ago) that the ice at 30 odd inches one year could support trains if'n they wanted to lay the tracks.
