Good Morning Gloucester 
I have often had to break ice from about where you show it in to the floats at Cripple Cove to get breakfast at Zeke’s. However that happens usually later in the winter.

Hopefully not too much more as things get jammed and slowed…Ice cutters/breakers be busy. If I remember correctly Lanes cove was frozen for a couple of weeks in 1960’s but the ice was moving some later hopefully clear soon cape pond ice and other’s may have a bunch or expertise here!! . Dave & Kim
