I went to the boat to check on things and while standing on the frozen dock I 
sensed that something wasn't right but nothing seemed out of the ordinary until 
it dawned on me that the boom was laying on the top of the cabin; the outboard 
end was hanging by the topping lift but the inboard end was laying at the base 
of the mast! I looked at it and found that the black metal part that goes in 
the goose neck was broken into pieces and the broken part of the "ring" was 
still in the goose neck with the bolt intact....I can only assume that it 
somehow froze and snapped? We have had the same cold spell as the rest of the 
country, (single digits, etc.); and some windy nights, but I have no idea how a 
one inch wide and half inch thick piece of metal just "broke"; nonetheless, can 
this be repaired? welded? or should I look for a new one? The boom is original 
to the boat; 1985 37 CB; any ideas? Thanks
