Hutchinson island

#1 Postby Florida_brit » Mon Sep 06, 2004 7:51 am

Does anyone know what impact the hurricane had on Hutchinson Island? Heard that the turtle nesting sites were destroyed (laid eggs 2 weeks ago!). There is so many lovey sea front properties, espeically in Martin Count, there too! What happened to Bathtub bays coral reef? Was any of it breached as in parts it is only metres wide!

If you have a look at the map the red star is where landfall was...hutchinson island was just infront of it dividing the intercoastal waterway and main land.

I just saw a video clip on cbs4.com and the reporter pointed to the bridge across from a boat storage facility and said that Hutchinson Island was across that causeway, but that police were not allowing them over there yet.
