How does the Ice work?
To convert water into ice takes two stages, the first is normal refrigeration to cool the water to 0 deg C, the second stage converting the water at 0 deg to Ice at 0 Deg uses many times more energy than the cooling process. This extra energy is locked into the Ice until it starts to melt. When the melt starts, the ice releases some of this energy to lower the temperature, and it tends to re-freeze some of the melt water forming a skin and further insulating itself.
Since Ice is a good insulator, the cycle can continue for quite a time. In a Fishing boat hold, allowing the excess water to drain and keeping any draft away from the Ice, means the fish gradually encases itself and the fish inside, and keeps the temperature stable.
