I was down by the Melony, watching chunks of ice float by, when the sun came up.

In warming weather, chunks of ice float, rather than sink to the bottom where they might melt extremely slowly.

An aircraft carrier is tough, but the hull simply isn't built to withstand the massive pressure that an ice float can bring to bear on man-made metal.

Down the Detroit River huge slabs of white ice float in the glassy green water Across the river is Canada.
