The race is on. The crowds are coming for the big weekend. The storm is on the way to the Gulf and the tides will be high. The new sand is being spread. How long will it last? Six thousand dollars of sand can be washed out in a matter of hours. The berm near the pier south of the 300 building has been lowered. The sand can now wash directly into the channel instead of the bay.
The channel remains shallow. I saw a small boat go out this morning. They raised the engine and one person went to the front of the boat to tilt up the bow. The made it, but just barely and I'm sure a larger boat cannot get out at this point.
