Come-in Capt. Brad------
Hope all is OK down your way.

Re: Katrina
 

Tug, I just tried your cell with no luck. I know you should be seeing a little sunshine now according to my radar. Hope all is well. Let us know as soon as your up. It's hammer time in the keys. Just spoke to a friend in Islamerada, she works for the power company there. Marathon got slammed along with the lower keys. Stay safe.

Re: Katrina
 

Talked with Tug this morrning. He's a little wet and a couple of trees down. Still has all his utilities. The water rose within 5' of his door. The eye passed within 15 miles of his house. He said "Hoover" is chest deep in water. I guess in this case "sheet floats" [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Stay alert Briguy and Warthog it's moving your way again [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: Katrina
 

Don't forget about Seamaster. He is in Key West.
Spoke to a friend this AM in Islamorada. He lives on Snake Creek, It was a rough ride. Another friend in Marathon, said
1 inch of water on the first floor, blew through the old
windows in the house. Hopefully all of our south Florida friends are OK. Keep us posted guys. See ya, Ken

Re: Katrina
 

Tug, glad you and the family are OK.
Down trees you can deal with.
After the 3 storms last year we had to deal with. There are no more trees to fall down.
If we can help let us know.
See ya, Ken [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Re: Katrina
 

Capt Brad,
Glad to hear you're okay. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Katrina
 

Well,we just got power here.It blew pretty good.Capt.Chuck I got your message on my phone just now,thanks for checking!The resort here is trashed and we lost one boat in the marina.But all in all,not bad considering we had no idea it was comming.The worst part was being stuck in the house with no electricty for 24hrs with 3 board to death kids!

Re: Katrina
 

about the same here
No power pole in back snaped at the base.. it must have blown hard to do that!
but besides that just some downed tres and branches
But my boat came out with out any damage .. maybe because I parked all my suv's arond it.

Hope all in the are came out ok

We hig tailed it to her parents in weston

Re: Katrina
 

Nice spelling on my part on the proir message

Re: Katrina
 

Well we just went through the grunt of the storm. Even though we werent supposed to! Whats up with this weather people, with all this expensive equipment, and cant tell us were the storm is going. It blew all day yesterday, and is stilling blowing and raining now. We JUST got our power back. Good thing the boat was on the trailer, it was filled with rain. We had a gust of 104 mph, with sustained winds of 70-75. It was not fun! Glad everyone is okay!

Re: Katrina

The pressure dropping is not good either.Put quite a few Years on the oIL RIGS & MOSTLY RUNNING sUPPLY vESSELS & LET mE TELL tHEM bOY'Z ARE BOUNCING AROUND! Cap Locks! Stock up on gas!Gotta great site if I can find it,post if I can. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Re: Katrina

Re: Katrina
 

Spidercrab, you better load up the RV with meemaw and peepaw

Hope all you guys come out of this OK.
May God be with you!!
See ya, Ken

Re: Katrina
 

Power just returned, it's been hot as hell here! No power, no phones, no cell service. The generator I bought last year didn't start up until yesterday when I exchanged it for a DEK model, finally had some power in the house but no ac until today. Like everywhere else had a lot of trees down and blocked us in for a while but those of us with trucks could drive over the smaller ones. Hope the LA and MS guys are getting ready for this one cause she's one tough biatch! Glad to know most everyone came out OK. I just had my first look at my boat since Thursday since the base was closed until this AM, she didn't even move from her parking space! Good thing because I'm wetting her this weekend!
