HIGH WINDS IN THE HARBOUR

We had some really high winds here over the last couple of days, which did some damage in the harbour. 







One of the docks broke loose with two boats attached.  That houseboat really catches the wind. 
They ended up against the shore.  It's a good thing it was a north wind that pushed them against the shore.  


If it had been a west wind they might have crashed into other boats and sailed right out of the harbour.

Like the ramps did.  A lot of the outer harbour have no ramps as they have sailed away. 
Some of them almost right out to sea. 
 Dean arrived, this morning and got some volunteers to help pull everything back into shape.
