Just drove down to Gloucester, Virginia from Charlottesville to check on my new boat, a 35 foot Cal Cruiser pilothouse (sailboat). I just sold a large part of my collection to a fellow board member and purchased this boat Thursday morning. On Thursday afternoon I was informed that I could not get insurance until the hurricane has passed by, even with USBOAT with whom the previous owner had her insurance with. So now, I am in McDonald's (free wifi) anxiously and hopefully waiting for the tide to drop (low tide around 2 pm. ) enough for me to make it to the marina. Right now there is over a foot and a half of water on the road and by high tide tonight, I imagine that most of those homes along the road will have two to three feet of water rearranging their furniture. Growing up on the outer banks of North Carolina, I have been thru a lot of nor'easters and hurricanes and this one feels a little different. There is a lot of water in front of this storm and and with the nearly nfull moon, this storm could be very destructive.
If the boat doesn't get destroyed, I will be sailing (moving) from here to St. Thomas on November 10th. I plan on being there for Christmas. Yee-Haw!!
