Well normally I try to get on the water in the beginning or April. This year I am working on a hard top and I still am not there. This is a video of what is left of our marina. I went down tonight and my boat would have been destroyed in the slip it was supposed to go into. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OcNH2qgtLK0

    Family is well. No damage where we live and no injuries at the marina. But the string of storms is up to around 35 deaths. Very sad.

    Always sad to hear of the destruction from mother nature.  Glad to hear you are doing ok and even lucky the boat was not there.  We want to continue seeing pictures of that hard top as well!

    Be safe RY. This was the first time I had ever seen tornado damage in real life. Hopefully the last. Not sure what I am going to do now. The good news is that the marina was bought last year by a group that does marine construction and they were making a lot of improvements already. So hopefully they can recover quickly and make the place even better. I guess I will take my time on the remainder of the hard top and see what happens in the next week or two.

    Sorry for the damage at your marina, thankfully your family and home are okay. Seeing the damage on the news makes me feel horrible for all those that were affected by the storms.
