Earlier this summer, the admiral and I went to the marina for a daysail.  We
were quite concerned with the fact that the pop top was resting in its
natural position, but it was not actually attached to the mast or to the
arms that hold up the stern side.  There was no other damage and nothing was
missing.

On Friday of last week, we ran into a live-aboard at the marina.  She
indicated that a "tornado" passed over Velvet Elvis during a storm, lifting
the pop top right off.  She was nice enough to replace it for us, or at
least to have her husband do it.

I have to imagine that the odds of even a small water spout passing over and
ripping off the pop top are pretty long.  Has anyone experienced anything
similar?

Now, I see that I'm right in the projected path of Isadore.  I suppose I'll
make the trip before or after work to add docklines and fendors.  Keep your
fingers crossed for me.

Ben
