Glad all is OK. Isaac's remnants hit about 30 seconds after I dropped the mooring line in Annapolis to head home. We got 30+ knots and it pissed down rain. Apparently we have a fatality too :( There was a MOB and from the radio chatter no one had found him by the end of the day. He was not wearing a PFD. Come on people, the water was warm and a lot of boats were looking. The guy could have been put back on the boat no worse for wear if anyone could find him! The wind remained highly variable all day and essentially devised a way to remain dead ahead no matter where I went.

Sent: Thursday, August 30, 2012 6:48 PM To: Cn Clist Subject: Stus-List Isaac recap Isaac dropped around 35 inches of rain on Mandeville. Max winds were around 40 knots steady with gusts to near 60. The water level gauge at Mandeville Harbor set a new record, 8.25 feet vs the old 7.60 feet set in 1985. Even Katrina wasn't that high. That means if you'd been standing on my pier, you'd have been in about 5 feet of water eyeball to Touche's boot stripe. Water level is still around 6 feet as I write this. I'll go over in a day of two to remove storm lines and wash mud off pier. Report from my marina is that Touche' is fine. Couple boats got piling burns because the owners didn't properly tie them. Since the marina's transformers sit on grade and the breaker panels are submerged at about 5 feet of surge, I suspect it will be a few weeks before power is restored. Marinas aren't high on the priority list. As for the house (in Baton Rouge), just a few hours without power and a scattering of branches in the yard. My Suburban is still in Pensacola from the transit back. Won't have a chance to retrieve it until Sunday. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA
