Good news is that we just got back to the boat and everything is AOK.
The inflatable dinghy was full of water but the outboard and gas tanks
stayed above. It started right up - thank you Mr. Honda. :-) The
generator on the big boat stayed running for the entire two days so
the fridges and freezer are good, and the batteries are all charged
up. Thank you Mr Kohler. There's some tree damage along the edge of
the creek where we anchored but nothing that impacted us. The
surrounding area (Green Cove Springs, FL) is without power and has
some relatively minor damage.


Glad to hear all was well.

I'm worried about daughter in Savannah. They can't get back to there house yet because of downed
trees and flooding. Their homeowner's insurance has a $9000 deductible for wind damage (e.g. felled
trees on roof), and they've got one of the better policies in the neighborhood.
