Well, initial reports of total destruction at our marina were
completely incorrect. The Zombie Princess is afloat and essentially
undamaged, although she is literally surrounded by sunken and grounded
boats.

Hooray for us! Terrific sadness for all the destruction we saw around
us in Slidell. I can't even imagine being in New Orleans proper.

Old radar reflector blew away. (I'd already bought a replacement;
just hadn't installed it yet.) Lost one dorade vent. Need a coupla
new jibsheets, which I'd taken off and used as added docklines; both
are now simply missing. Got some rubs on the gelcoat, starboard side,
where she rubbed against another boat which survived. Hey! She's a 20
year old Hunter, her gelcoat was already pretty scratched up and faded.
These are "keeper" hurricane scars a boat should be proud to wear.

What we hafta do now is find out if or when we can get out of Lake
Pontchartrain. A brief trip to West Marine, a day of general cleanup,
and we're back on track.

See ya,

Frank, lucky SOB

I'd get her out of that lake ASAP re all the crap being pumped in.
Delay and you might need a bio-suit just to board her.
