ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Novel apparatus is provided for maintaining a substan- tially ice-free zone around a vessel out to 100 feet or more. The apparatus includes (a) a plurality of floating modules disposed around, and each connected at one end to, the vessel; (b) a continuous, downwardly depending skirt extending complete- ly around the outer periphery of the plurality of floating mod- ules; and (c) an air/water heat exchanger in a selected plurality of such floating modules. The combination of the floating can- opies around the vessel, and the hot air contained within the ice-free zone by the skirts, provides an ice-free zone around the vessel.
