My First Winter Night on the River

After weeks of restoration work, insulation upgrades, and heating system testing, it was finally time to take the boat out for a real winter night on the Danube. The forecast promised sub-zero temperatures, cold rain, and wind. By morning, it dropped below freezing. Steel at those temperatures feels unforgiving — and that’s exactly why this trip mattered. This wasn’t about survival. It was about comfort, reliability, and understanding how a restored steel boat behaves in real winter conditions. During this overnight stay: – The cabin was heated with a propane heater – The diesel heater ran through the night at a lower setting – Outside temperatures hovered around freezing – Solar panels were covered in snow – The engine faced a true winter cold start From cooking over an open fire at the riverside base, to rain tapping against the metal roof before dawn, this was a quiet test of insulation, heating efficiency, condensation control, and battery management. Winter boating isn’t dramatic. It’s slower. Quieter. More deliberate. And sometimes, warmer than you’d expect. If you enjoy boat life, winter camping, river living, or simply the contrast between harsh weather outside and warmth inside, this one’s for you. ▶ Full build & launch playlist:    • I bought an abandoned boat – it turned out...   New episodes every week.
