J.R. was here before 7 am this morning to survey the pier damage. Here is Hector as he helped Edward retrieve the lumber from the water. They both had to get in the water and haul the boards up on dry land.
The boards were stored behind the maintenance shed for now. The last time we did this the whole stack disappeared over night. This looks like a lot of timber for just the end of the pier. Edward and Hector replaced all the boards that had popped up on the pier walkway.These nails show pretty clearly that the platform was under designed in a effort to save money. The other and older platform suffered no damage at all. This lumber can be used to rebuild the platform, but heavier hardware will be needed. Rob is back in California or I believe he would make a strong effort to help us rebuild.
