Dumb Arse me who has not had to syphon fuel for thirty years or more did not know they have anti syphon valves in them for over a decade. Can't get it out.

They are saying we may not have power until next Wednesday. I sure hope they are wrong.
Senor Burt is not looking pretty, took me three hours but I got to see it yesterday.
She may be salvageable, but it going to cost a chunk.
Plus there are going to be very few places to get it worked on and even fewer mechanics and glassmen to go around.
I had tears in my eyes with what I saw down along Raritan Bay yesterday.
God help those poor people.
I see that most of us made it through with our health and families intact.
I am very thankful for that.
My computer is running out of battery so I will say A Dios till later.
Will post some photos when we get internet back.
Till then you all take care and comb your hair.
Don't worry, if you and your family made ito ut your doing good. And remember after hurricanes there are 2 boat brands that almost always make it back on the water with minimal repairs, HATTERAS and BERTRAMS. They are both built like tanks and would be shocked to know how many have weathered cat 4 hurricanes to be repaired and still going today. Wish I could have popped in to help out as I just got back from up that way(had to go to a funeral in Barnegat).
