Cape Cod Nor Easter

Post by tonyiiiafl »

So far we have not escaped this one. The aft canvas has been torn up on 3 panels, and the front hatch ripped oepen and flapping on the front deck. I hated to call insurrance, but contacted CHUBB(ACE) and reported the claim, so far very nice people. 84 MPH winds. If we were at our home marina this would have been more protected, but at marina storage awaiting haul out,

Sorry to hear that. Hope the insurance takes care of it and hope you have shops that can do the replacement over the winter so you don't loose any of your season next year!!

The new canvas will probably last a long time though!

The worst of this one stayed east of us. Only 25mph gusts.
You pay that insurance premium for this type of event. I wouldn't be afraid to use it!

Sorry to hear that Tony, could have been much worse though. I trust the solar panel installation held up okay?

Solar panels stood up well. I still can’t believe that they are only held in by 4200. Ins company called today. Said get an estimate for repair and they would love it forward. They are comfortable with who I want to use also. Also said they would cover the wet v berth cushions. Staying very hopeful.
