Dennis, you need to sit through the storm and give us hourly updates like the weather channel guys...! (just kidding)
Seriously, do let u know how you fare during "Nate"; Richard 1985 C&C 37 CB; Ohio River, mile 584.4 Richard N. Bush 2950 Breckenridge Lane, Suite Nine Louisville, Kentucky 40220-1462 502-584-7255 On Oct 4, 2017, at 2:50 PM, Dennis C. via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: Looks like TD16 will become a Cat 1 huricane before it makes landfall on the Florida Panhandle then heads towards the Chesapeake. This is getting annoying. Touche's slip in Mandeville, LA is a fixed pier. It has been submerged for a couple days now from that system that was around northeastern Florida last week. Strong easterly winds for days pushes water into Lake Pontchartrain through The Rigolets. My dock box probably has several inches of water in it. I keep everything in tubs so unless the water gets 2 feet or so over the dock, everything is OK. Pain in the butt to go pull everything out, mop it out and let it dry. I usually set up a folding chair and drink a beer or two. The other issue is the mud on the dock. If one of the boat owners doesn't get down there while the mud is still wet and hose it off, it's a pain in the butt to wash the dock boards after the mud dries. Anyway, Touche' is still in Pensacola on a floating pier. If I go over to do storm prep (remove sails and canvas), I may have to stop by Mandeville and wade through the marina to get storm dock lines out of my dock box. Always fun with the snakes, fire ants and gators. :( Dennis C.
