I saw on television some video of one marina where boats had been tied up at the dock. The dock looked like it had been crushed and one boat had sunk. Another looked like the bow was chewed up where it kept hitting the dock.The Television identified it as a marina in Green Cove Springs. I hope there is no damage to Dave Talbots Nursery there. He is a gracious daylily hybridizer I know who lives there

That was the Ft Pierce Marina. Total devastation.

The concrete docks floated away, taking boats with them. Boats sunk, boats crushed, boats on top of each other. Stories of folks crying because the lived on their boats.
