s/v Miracles R22 (1981 hull) on land in Mill Basin on Sunday was floated 
off her stands and is resting on her stb side rudder in mud on edge of 
eastern fork of Basin
in D'Meglio's yard.  About 75% of boats in yard were damaged.  I put her 
on land a week ago and secured the tarps, took  motor and all 
electronics off before storm.

Hopefully she can be re blocked soon so I can evaluate her hull for 
serious damage.
pray for Miracles!



will try to post  some pics but they may not go thru

Hope all other Rhodies  are safe and  not damaged from this superstorm
