Default All Boats Gone...bad Day.

Today i awoke to my neighbor banging on my door, saying i think the garage up the street where u keep your boat is on fire, so i fly up there and sure enough it is. There in a garage me and 4 guys rent. I had 2 boats, mustang and my friends had checkmate, restored chriscraft, boston whaler, 2 jetskied and countless out vehicals...all a total loss. Most not insured. Story mad all new tv station, and was 3 alarm fire with 6 different town fighting the fire. This is someting you think will never happen to you. A 5th wheel camper that was parked next to building caught fire for what ever reason and lit the building, it was all gone in mins. here are pics:

my baja has insurance, my 271 i just got 30 days ago and i needed a survey with in 30 days and i havent been able too because we have gotten like 4 feet of snow in the last month and it may have ran out YESTERDAY, my mustang has antique plates and has very minimal insurance, most of other boat arnt covered. we were told that owner of building had insurance, but when something happen like this things chang real fast...

I just wanted to show pics, dont really want this to turn into a lecture on why didnt you have insurance, trust me not many people have a bad day like i did lossing 80k in stuff. 30k for each boat and 20k for mustang.

It all just really sucks.....
