North Carolina Irene reports

8/29/2011
Alright so we are even now here. We lost our DSL early in the storm and I could not hold service with verizon and then we lost power yesterday for hourse…I guess they turned us off to function on the grid and it popped back on final evening right when it was time for bed and AC!
The property is a nightmare, Billy’s barn received a very good washing and BC states he has by no means had drinking water downstairs in his property – even in the storm of the century – and Saturday night he had eighteen inches. What a mess. Kate lost 1 of her chickens and the Fishing Center is a mess…puilings are in spot but the docks are gone and the Tuna fever is large and dry up in Manteo! Enjoy it!! Restricted Lines!

Here we are – have clocked 57 mph overnight and only just lost the tv with a power surge! Not too undesirable so far. Capt BC can see the Tuna fever from his kitchen and although the h2o has sucked out of the canal she seems to be alright. The family is nevertheless hunkered down and I will be updating the facebook web page when I can. Restricted Lines!

We have done all we can to put together
for Hurricane Irene. We made the decision not to fish the second day of the VB billfish tournament so we could make preparations for this massive storm. The boat has been hauled out in a boatyard in Wanchese. Please desire us and all the other boats there very good luck. A generator is in place to maintain our bait freezers jogging in the function of prolonged power outage. A lot of of the neighborhood captains, crews, and family members are arranging to stick out the storm right here on the Outer Banking institutions. Others, who a most likely smarter, heeded the evacuation warnings. Excellent luck to every person in the path of Irene.

Survived
The again side of the storm was considerably far more detrimental than the major edge. 3 ft of h2o rushed into the garage underneath my house in Manteo. Only lost a single bait freezer. The boat was on blocks in wanchese. If the h2o had risen another foot she would have floated off the jacks. We ended up fortunate. The inlet is very good. The boat will be released Tuesday but our dock at the fishing middle is a mess. Will update later. No energy. Posted by iphone. Street to Hatteras has been washed out near Avon.

Even now Right here! / Posted by: Capt. Kenneth / 08/28/11

Irene is gone and we are nevertheless right here. The very best I can notify the wind harm was minimum. We were fortunate adequate that we never ever missing electricity throughout the storm. The back side of the hurricane introduced all the drinking water again and it sounds like the tide was as high as anybody has witnessed. Not excellent for anyone in the regions that typically flood. Most of the night time was put in pondering the tide acquired higher sufficient to float all the boats off the stands at the boat lawn. The information was far better this morning. We even now have not been to the boat garden since of h2o on the roads but Cliff called and explained none of the boats have moved off the stands. Great information. Still do not know how a lot hurt was caused to Oregon Inlet Fishing Middle but we will find out afterwards today. Thank you for checking on us!

We are sure glad that one is gone! We knew she was not gonna be a wind problem, but we ended up key worried about the drinking water. Our fears have been recognized when we had a lot more flooding than we have had in a very lengthy time, and some regions had historical flooding. We haven’t been able to get to the boat, yet, but a couple sets of eyes have noticed her, and say the &quotDOGHOUSE&quot rode the storm out very good. The water has gone ample now that I will make my way here in a minute. Thank you for the thoughts, and prayers- they are the most important- now it is clear-up time. We’ll maintain you posted. Shack
