As a fellow sailboat owner, this is hard to watch. The video description reads:
This is me dropping my Catalina 25 off at the dump after she was wrecked in Hurricane Ike. Actually the boat was drug after the storm by residents of the condos that she came to rest in. I had to cut the front 5 feet off to fit it on the wrecker… heat breaking for me. … this was my first sailboat
Here’s a time lapse video of the Carnival Conquest returning to Galveston earlier this month.
Here’s the first part, coming in the main canal.
The opening shot of this second part is particularily amazing, as it shows ones house that is nearly gutted from underneath by the storm surge.
Damage to one Galveston resident’s boat after Hurricane IKE.
This is a fascinating video. I’ve seen all the pictures of boats strewn across roads and yards –
and I kept wondering, “how will they clean all those up?”
I guess the answer is — “one at a time.”
UPDATE: For those of you that might be interested, below is a video of this gentleman securing the Kittiwake before leaving town for Ike….
