        Are you trying to avoid being crushed or having floating ice chew up the surface of your hull? I think I'd look at steel. It's cheap and when you're back you can recycle it.

        No individual rain-drop thinks it\'s responsible for the flood.

              i want to prent the damage from the ice chewing up the hull. when the vessel orignally went north she had the greenheart sheathing, and wintered over a couple of times. Since she is now a national historic landmark, we need to be historically accurate

                          Takeing any vessel into Artic waters is a crapshoot at best. I belive that takeing a historic vessel up there constitutes an irresponsible act.
