Thanks, Colin We just got in from Pensacola. 2 1/2 days of really great sailing. Averaged 6.5 knots for the 164 nm trip. Even if Pensacola escapes, Touche's slip in Bayou Castine in Mandeville is very protected and I'd rather be here than anywhere on the coast.
Did a bunch of storm prep after docking. Spider webbed the dock lines across the neighboring slips, dropped the headsail, took all halyards forward to the toe rails, etc. Staying on boat tonight and will finish pulling canvas, mainsail, and other stuff tomorrow. Already experiencing spot shortages and outages on fuel and supplies as people stock up. Bit of ironic deja vu, Hurricane Katrina devastated NOLA on August 29. Isaac will also make landfall on August 29. Let's hope the French Quarter and Pat O'brien's survive. Prayers and best wishes to all in Isaac's path. Dennis C.
