this is when it sucks being 60 miles from the boat, going up and checking on it every day during this kind of stuff..makes me wish I pulled it out on hard. but then those 70 degree days in Dec. change my mind.
the wind is blown at 40 mph in VA.Bch. and this thing is going to hang on us until Saturday morning and tonight is going to be the worst

These pictures are at Bay Point Marina in Norfolk, VA at about 2:00 pm 11/12/09. High tide isn't expected till around 4 or 5. Doesn't look good. The gang plank is an up hill climb to get to the floating dock. Side walk and bulkheard are just under water. There was just over 3 feet of piling left before the docks float off of them and all the boats become property of the navy across the creek. I'm praying that that doesn't happen...
I saw a lot of damaged canvas and sails.
