Surfrunner almost sank today

If not for the effort of the Newport Harbor master by boat would be sitting on the bottom today. He saw that she was taking on water and sent his son to the Hinckly Yard to get a high volume pump. By the time I got to Newport she was pumped out. The bats were dead though from pumping out all the rain. Got a new battery and got her started. Then pumped her dry. Between my storm drain issues, a transformer explosion outside my front door and the boat I have been going from one diaster to another. I am going to bed now. Been at it since 4:45 am. and I an fricking exhausted.

At least seven boats went down between Stone Cove Marina and next door at Pt Jude YC.

We made it out with the r/v at Brewers Cowesett, one dead pump battery, the back-up was still charged, boat was fairly dry. Quick charge of the batt this AM and we're no worse for the wear; phew...
Hey Duke; those Npt Harbor master guys are alright, huh.. who caught the boat in Time? Tim, Rudy or George?
