what is the distance from the top of the ice to the lowest opening?
In Response To: Ice in cockpit!! ()

That would really concern me with the upcoming forecast. How much of a margin do you have before trapped water reaches an instrument panel, port, companionway?? We have cold followed by snow, then warm temps and rain. No doubt that your drains are currently blocked with ice, I suspect 6" will take some time to melt.

Based on how much room you have before a leak starts, decide how aggresive you need to be.
