I here the uppper bay got it bad!!! Port Deposit, I hear, was flooded. A 30 ft. boat sunk at the docks. Charlestown Marina had 5ft of water in the parking lot. In the covered slips one boat was sticking out of the top of the roof!!!! We keep our boat in the Hi & Dri at Tomes Landing and from what I heard we are OK!!! I hope, I have to work tomorrow till 4pm. then I'm heading down to check things out.

Hope everyone is OK!!

Here is where we keep our boat. The floor of the buildings are 1 ft. higher than the water level of Agnes!!

Well, one lift motor revived the other died (actually it ran for a couple lift cycles which gave me time to get fresh grease in everything and then it went "poof"). Ordered two new motors, switches were completely sealed and didn't get any moisture inside so was lucky there. Overall got off pretty easy compared to many, but I still can't go boating this weekend as now the boat is "stuck" on the lift.

R Addiction - All's well at Tome's Landing dry stack. The water stopped about 4 feet below the floor level (about 1'-2' over the sea wall). The water level is pretty close to normal now, but there is TONS of debris floating around. No one at Tome's has been able to answer the phones due to lack of power for the phone system. They were madly cleaning up this morning (10:00 AM), and wer talking about launching boats tomorrow. I'm gonna wait for the Bay to flush itself out a little....
