          • Backpack leaf blower & shrinkwrap gun.
          • Perhaps. An ice pick is easy to control.
  • Living in he Great White North we see a lot of ice in cockpits. There is only one way to get rid of it.
    • If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you?
      • If he only melts half of it he'll have a cockpit full of ice and slush. How's a frozen scupper going to get rid of H2O?
    • What's the matter with making a large Margarita out of it?
      • Tequila in 55 gallon drums?

  • Rock salt 'in the middle'
  • Drill and tap
