Last Night's Wind Leaves Its Mark on West Neck Marina

Stopped by there a little earlier to say hi to Gene and to see what, if any, damage had been done to the marina. It didn't take but a cursory look to see some of the evidence. Besides the usual toll on canvas covers for some of the boats in the storage area, there was unmistakable damage to the corner of the roof on the boat barn that just recently had undergone a bit of a facelift.

If I have my facts right, only the boat in the first stall incurred some damage as a result of what happened to the roof. Also learned that one of the rental boats ended up going the same route as an old Glasstream boat I once owned. Had some timber go across its width just like my old Glasstream.

Beyond that, there were some smaller limbs strewn throughout the premises. But thanks to some speedy action by Gene the same time as the storm hit, some loose paddles, chairs and such from the store's porch were prevented from going into the drink.

As I understand it, the insurance company already has been contacted about repairs.
