Default Flash Flooding

Well I received a call about the boat today. Here is why. Hopefully insurance pays out. I own the blue boat with a red pinstripe attached to a blue trailer.

This is a picture of the lot the boats were stored on. As you can see they traveled a decent distance.

This is where a few ended up. You can see the rear of my boat, it is blue.

A few more pics of the pile.

Opposite side of the pile.

Not sure what its called but the bottom fin of my outdrive is gone and the trailer skids snapped.

I don't think team Budweiser will be catching many fish in here. The glare to the right is a capsized boat. If you look closely you will see a boat sitting on its side behind the Bud boat.

A few that lost there trailers.

Last but not least the boat that we believe was run over by another boat during the flood. Possibly the one beside it.

Anyway I thought this was a pretty crazy event. All of these boats, and many more not pictured, were washed away in under 2 hours.
