Greetings Members,

I am happy to report that with all said and done, we faired pretty well with Tropical Storm
Isaias. We only had minor damage to a small portion of the docks, and one boat reported
damage. A few jet skis needed to be saved but only with minor damage. If you were not

contacted by marina staff, your boat is in good condition.

As we continue into storm season, please provide me with a good contact number so I
may contact you when situations like this occur.

Most everyone is doing a great job keeping up with the weather and checking on their
boats and/or taking them out of the water. As always, please check your boat and your
lines when a storm is approaching and afterwards especially if you can’t take it out of the

water. I strongly recommend to use 5/8 to 1” braided lines for extra security. There were a
few snapped lines last storm.

Another addition I have been exploring is dock boxes. The idea is in its infancy stage, but I

feel that dock boxes with a clear label and security they would be a great addition to clear
of clutter. Please reach out with your thoughts on this, I am happy to hear them!

Fair Winds and Following Seas,
