You'll be okay Haggie.... sounds like you have a plan and it sounds good.
The spikes in the piles are a good idea. Hope you don't get a surge that
high. Cross the lines for maximum effect. The way this thing is moving it
could well blow itself out before it gets to you.

| Yeah, I'm getting that feel in the pit of my stomach. With only one
big
| anchor I'm thinking about staying in the slip. Depends on the wind.
| Sure
| hope it stays off shore tho.

| Haggie, you'd better take your boat way up a river so you don't
| lose it. Stevie and LOCO can stand to lose theirs. Scotty's is
already
| a loss. It will be a blessing in disguise so they can get something
| better
| with the insurance money.
|
| I still say Isabel is going to hit Long Island. I certainly hope so
| because I want to see Booby experience some REAL winds
| and seas.
