It is a "SL'edge because it is an original model heavier than a sledgehammer. Winters are not too bad here but it can get down in the low teens or even single digits on occasion. I can make a cozy spot in the basement for it but wanted opinions from Yankee boaters as to if this is necessary.

I keep all my boats in the garage year round.
