DAYUM! Went out to Hammond yesterday...everybody's boats were SOAKED. Dinghies were almost sinking they were so full...my inlaws' canvas leaked so their rugs were saturated.

The girlfreind lives on a farm out in Cedar lake and the creek that is 15' below the bridge to her house was 3' over the bridge. Needless to say she had to call off work since she didn't want to attempt totaling my truck crossing it

You keep it in the shop so it doesn't get wet , who are you trying to fool. The court Jester?

Was in New Buffalo last night. The boat ramp is closed. I didn't see any damage to boats in my marina, but the river is very high and the current is strong.
