Default Storm victims Reports

Actually, we didn't sail home - we keep the boat in Fell's Point. But there
is still a lot of debris in the Patapsco - large chunks of wood probably
from docks.
I did see a few of the Army Corps of Engineers cleaning crews out on the
waters, picking stuff up. But even with that, we stil saw more stuff today.
Really need to be careful while sailing around.
Yeah, we went for a sail today, simply because it was so quiet on the
water - very few boats out.

Glad to hear your boat's OK. When you sailed home, did you encounter much
debris? I keep hearing it will be tuff to sail the Bay for a week or two

due
to floating debris.

Ringmaster made out fine at the floating marina in Baltimore. I was

down
there at 1:30 AM Friday morning at what I thought would be the height of

the
winds and tides. The docks had about 4 feet to go before they would go

"over
the top" A friend called me Friday afternoon when the storm was gone to

tell
me the surge had grown more. The docks got within 10"-12" from going

"over
the top" I sailed the boat back to it's home marina today. The place

had
been
under water Thursday night but there didn't seem to be any damaged

boats.
I
still think it was a good move going to a floating marina.
Best news was that the power was back on when I got home.
