The aftermath of Hurricane Katrina at CRYC

Photos by Knud Smal of Rapacious VI

Although Katrina was "just" a category 1 storm, she managed to do a bit of damage to the Coral Ridge Yacht Club.

P/C Tomlinson, chairman of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, reports that arrangements have been made to remove all downed tree trunks and other debris by Tuesday, August 30.  A company has been hired to disassemble and remove the remains of the Verandah canopy that landed partly on the parking lot and partly on the docks.

There is water damage to both dance floors.  Efforts are underway to see if they can be dried and restored, or whether they will have to be replaced.  The water-soaked carpeting is being dried and cleaned.

These photos Knud Smal took show the damage at the Point Bar and Grille, especially to the fans and the suspended TV sets.  The TV on the ground looks to be in one piece, but it remains to be seen whether it still works.  It is clear the ceiling fans whirled themselves to bits in Katrina's winds.
