As you know, fresh water freezes before saltwater. If it was one day I might risk it. Three days of freezing out of the water, I think you have to do something.
If there truly is nothing you can do, you've done all you can, don't worry. But I always think there is something we can do. Can you call someone to get a heater on board? Can you at least get someone to put a Droplight in the engine compartment? A single 100 watt lightbulb should be all that is needed. FYI, I worked halfday Monday, took care of all my obligations making sure my three schools had heat, took a half day off, drove 2 1/2 hrs to winterize my boat in the water, in the dark, drove 2 1/2 hrs home to be able to work today.

I did the sink/shower plumbing while the boat was still at the dock. As luck (or Murphy) would have it, the nighttime temperatures are supposed to get down to the 20s for the next three nights. There is not much I can do about it now, so how worried should I be about freeze damage to the systems, especially since it now has fresh water in it from the trip up the river to the winter home.
