  1. OWNER - I own a Hatteras Yacht
Hatteras Model
34' CONVERTIBLE (1965 - 1969)
Live in Madeira Beach FL where a F-0 tornado was created by a strong front. $hit got real very fast. Was working in my office, got the cell phone alert, and looked out back to see what was going on. Saw the wind heavy on the boats and then it got very strong very fast. I actually could see due to the water spray a gust go right up behind the Mad Hatter. Snapped (best way to describe it) the whole enclosure off in an instant. The other boat was untouched but was hanging 6' off the dock and I was seriously questioning the strength of 5/8 lines as my best choice.

So the Mad hatter will get a new enclosure, I will be contributing some cash into this great economy, and best of all I was able to report to Dave that Esperanza is still safe.

Very glad it wasn't worse as it easily could have been. Gonna finish the laundry now. Some things needed washing after that!
