The Dockmaster at Sandy Hook Bay Marina reports that s/v Susan Kay came
through the storm just fine. I finally got through to him this AM (power and
cell service down). The docks float (major factor in not hauling her) and he
reported they came up slightly above the bulkheads during the high tide at
the height of the surge. I left her tied to the dock (six 5/8 dock lines),
starboard side to, with multiple shock cords around the mast and furled
headsail (which I left up) and was sure to keep the cockpit plug out of the
drain. Four big well placed and secure fenders. Tony says she looks great,
not a scratch. 

I thought about hauling her but frankly the boats out on stilts looked in
more precarious positions than nestled next to the dock that would raise and
lower with the tide. 

Best,

BenC
