I thought I read that the butane cartridges for the stove I have on board would not work well under 32 degrees.  Might need to stick with rum.  Joe Riley s/v Second Wind

Soon to be owner here. Some of us don't always get the chance to sail in
fair weather. Living in the northeast, my season may stretch into late
fall, even winter or begin in early spring and include some sub freeezing
temperatures. Does anyone have experience sailing in the Rhodes when it is
really cold? Other than dodging icebergs, a concern is iced up furling
system. I may not make a habit of it, but I'll try anything once.... well
almost anything.
