30 ft off the breakwater felt really solid. We did cut a hole to check and it was 7+ inches thick where we checked. We did not cross the broads or spend much time on the ice knowing that the broads are typically thinner.

Sounds like you know what your doing. Did you actually measure the ice or was that 7"+ a guestimate? I guess 7" out there isn't that bad. The thing I don't understand is how there can be that much (or little depending on how you look at it) in the Broads with all the cold temps, yet in the smaller areas I am hearing reports of the same. Did you see anyone else out in that area north of Rattlesnake? Tracks? Thanks for the report and pics.
