From Nova Scotia
Mooron lives in the next village from me...we have no power (2nd day).....
that's why no response from him..... Bayside (Mooron's place ) was not hit as hard as Terence Bay...we lost about 3 pleasure boats and about 3 fishing boats....all where run into the shore.... Some real dramatic stuff here.....I have some great pic's of why you don't leave your boat tied to a dock in a hurricane.... My brand new seaswirl boat survived...... tied to a new mooring I but in the bay this year..... But was almost picked debris.... |

Right you are. It's common sense to remove your boat from
it's slip or dock and either have it hauled and stored in a secure place or put it on a mooring in a protected harbor with as little fetch as possible. Around here people even put them up a creek and tie them spider web fashion to the mangrove trees. Any fool who thinks his boat is safe at a dock during a hurricane deserves what he gets - severe damage or worse . . . Remember, it's not usually water and waves that sinks boats, it's the hard stuff around the edges that does. S.Simon - always available with words of wisdom. "sv "Sensoria"" wrote in message ...

Why don't you send him a smoke signal (Canadian wireless) asking if he's OK?

I can assure everybody not to worry about Mooron and his
beloved boat. It wouldn't surprise me if the old salt went to sea to evade and remembered how much he loved sailing and is on his way to Bermuda. S.Simon - another salty sailor.

Women can't think logically.
