Oh, that is what it was. I was approaching Kent Narrows from the north 
(Baltimore) just as I got hammered. Was pretty interesting for about half an 
hour or more, fortunately, as I needed to enter the narrows, it calmed down. 
And..... wherever I went, the light wind was on the nose (except for the brief 
excitement).

  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 L 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.

  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.
