Hurricane Harvey - What a mess!

My 40' sailboat was right at ground zero when Harvey hit. What a mess.  Mine stayed afloat, but was stuck on top of 2 more big sailboats. 

 

I managed to get her off and free at high tide, but she was dismasted (they are in the waster somewhere) and had several big places there the hull was broken. Oh, well. It was just a boat, not my body!

I've been asked by several people if the devastation was as bad as portrayed in the news.

 

it's much worse. There is no way they can show how bad it was. Block after block, just torn to hell. 1000 boats sunk or beat to hell like mine. And that is from insurance reports. Many, like mine, had no insurance.
