Don't know the answer to that question, but maybe some locals to LOTO can. The water I run in comes from way up north and will completely freeze over if cold enough. I think LOTO will freeze over too, which kind of debunks the micro climate theory.

I looked for three years, and saw only three in that total time. Seen one more in an ad since I bought mine last spring. So pretty rare indeed.

What does the Smartcraft show from a fuel economy perspective under normal conditions (not so windy/ no current) when crusing at speeds 45-50 MPH ?
