ABSTRACT:
An ice barrier for the wet storage of boats is formed of a plurality of notched, elongated elements bridled about a boat hull at waterline. These elements are compressible and their outside surfaces form a V-type groove parallel to and located at the boat's waterline. In this manner, forming ice engages the elements in the notched regions and tends to lock them at that level so that they are not easily dislodged from their protective position. Any movement of the elements with the natural rocking of the boat, cooperating with the notch, aids in breaking the ice.
