Thats what I was thinking I am in south Wolfeboro bay and the ice that formed there over last few days was all small unconnected pieces that were floated in by the wind. I could see how they could pile up against the dock and circulator all the way to the bottom getting slushier as they went deeper. That would explain the consistency of ice that surrounded it too.
