[Board-2018] PYC Storm Update

[Wes Smith]

Hi All,

 

Thanks for all the pictures and the various up dates much appreciated.  

 

I have been in and out of club during and after the various storms; February
14th, March 1-3, we are very fortunate we have had only minor damage and
issues.

 

These storms have tested the structural integrity of the club; she has done
well! it's a true testament to the care and maintenance  she has received
over the years.

 

However these storms did highlight areas that need our attention.

 

.         The shed after the February 14th (Not sure of exact date) had a
foot of water, and some water after each storm. Need to address the shed
wall facing the ocean.  

.         Hot water heater room - Had 1 foot of water (same time frame as
above), and some water after each storm. Need to make this room water tight.

.         WI Fi Antenna -as reported by Roy Briscoe, earlier. Needs to be
replaced.

.         After March 2nd storm six (6) of the dock pilings are swaying back
and forth.

.         The ramp transition to the dock has to be reinstalled and secured.

.         March 2nd storm damaged the white fence along Piscataqua Road. At
least five (5) horizontal boards were blown off.  Upon further inspection a
number of the posts need to be replaced, due to rot. 

 

Maybe I shouldn't say this winter lock has been off while doing the upgrade
to the bathrooms. Plus it has saved me several trips from Durham.

 

Thanks again for all your observations and photos.
