Lees Ford Marina - Pics to be Loaded Tonight - Damage

Post by OhioNavyCom »

I went to Lees Ford last weekend to check out any damage to our boat. Fortunately, we were spared any damage from the incredible amount of debris packed in all over.

B-dock was badly damaged and many boats on C-dock are wedged in for a while.

I have pics to share as a slide show on OhioNavy.com. It will be on there tonight.

Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.

Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me.

Sweet! So sad the marina was trying to clean things up and this happened. Post us a link when you get them ready.
Buy American, the job you save just might be your own.

Storm and Debris Cause Lee's Ford Marina to be Evacuated....

Post by OhioNavyCom »

Here is the link to some pics from Lee's Ford Marina:

I put these pics on their own page. There is no longer a music issue.

The pics shown are from Lee's Ford Marina following a severe storm a two weekends ago. "B" dock is twisted and broken. Boats were moved after an evacuation. The fear was "B" dock breaking away and colliding with the fuel pier.

If you know the marina, you will notice the temporary slips used for visitors and rentals is totally gone.

Much of the pics with debris is on the "hill" side of "C" dock. Only about two boats can get out. The rest are debris-locked for who knows how long.

We are not too happy about the possibility of being stuck there on Memorial Day weekend. However, we do have a small open bow and will make the best of it.
