Image NorthumberlandStrait iceboat.png right frame Two iceboats being hauled over ice during their crossing on NorthumberlandStrait date unknown . A NorthumberlandStrait iceboat is a rowing boat , typically 5 metres in length, 2 metres in beam, with runners fastened to the hull for dragging over sea ice . Constructed of wood, similar to fishing Dory dories built in Atlantic Canada and New England , the iceboats were operated in the NorthumberlandStrait during the 19th century and early 20th century, running between Prince Edward Island and the mainland provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia during the winter months between December and April when sea ice made passage by non icebreaker icebreaking steam ships impossible. They were also used during the winter months to connect Pictou Island with mainland Nova Scotia , sometimes in conjunction with passages from Prince Edward Island. Throughout the 19th century, iceboats became an essential link to mainland North America for Prince Edward Island, transporting both mail and passengers. Passengers would pay a premium fee to sit in the boat for the entire crossing, or a reduced rate if they assisted the crew. In addition to pulling ropes attached to the iceboat, hand holds were molded along the outer gunwale s which were used for hauling the iceboat over sea ice until reaching stretches of open water. The greatest danger that iceboat crews and passengers faced was not the stretches of open water, nor the sea ice, but rather the heavy slush that would pool in areas of open water that were in the process of solidifying into ice. There are several accounts of boats becoming mired in these conditions and oars being broken during ... swept up or down the NorthumberlandStrait and landing far from their intended destinations.
