Stuart Island, British Columbia
Interesting idea.
Ocean water temperature here is about 10C and air temperature, when we are
here April through October, ranges from about 10 to 20. I will have to
experiment to see if the differential would be a reliable indicator. It's
difficult to say what the temperature of a dry bilge might be, as it is
below the water line but separated from the water by 3/4" plywood plus
epoxy and paint.
Thank you,
Peter
