Thank you for this video.
A lot of us had nowhere to run. We had to hunker down where we were, not realizing how close we were to potential annihilation.
This is the fourth week since ... I'm glad I'm only seeing it now.
God be with all affected, especially those who mourn. God be with all the kind people who showed up with water, food, and generators to charge our phones so we could let our families know we were ok.
Sad watch from Canada....had many fine times at Bonita Bills and the beach strip...God bless
Thanks for putting this video together so the world can see the Heartbreak this storm caused. Many lost their homes, businesses, jobs, and way of life. I know that many of the retirement mobile home villages will probably not be permitted to rebuild due to new building laws, many of these were awesome close knit communities that are simply gone.
Watching from Australia and can't believe how bad it is, wish everyone the best to get back on your feet. Thanks for capturing this, love to see more on the rebuilding and clean up too, just can't imagine how some of those boats will get recovered.
Thank you!
The boats were tossed like tinker toys into the mangroves. I’ve seen it in person and the raw POWER of this hurricane was beyond anything I could have imagined
Yeah, it's scary stuff. We have a long road ahead but we're getting there.
Agree. Seeing it in person gives a completely different perspective. Heart breaking
Raw power and out of the last 5 this had the lowest level wind. The other ones were progressively stronger going back. I’m actually glad I moved to Michigan, ⛷⛸☃️not so bad now.
@@4406bbldb Sure about that? :-/ Having a bit of snow right now?
So many memories. Dammit, just dammit. Sending much love to all who live, work and played along coastal Lee & Collier Counties. Godspeed y’all.
The scale of devastating is mind boggling
My heart is broken. RIP Santos house. Mahalo to Bonita Bills for the thousands of awesome breakfasts and peel-n-eat shrimp, especially after Irma when none of us had power. A hui hou.
Every time I'd go to Doc Ford, I'd see that tiny mobile home park next to Gulf Star and always said to myself, I'd hate to be in one of those tiny homes during a hurricane.
Was there at Salty Sam's (12:40) with the Mrs this past March for the first time. Hopefully it was not also the last time!
We'll be back better than ever!
If I knew how to work on boats or had a dump truck or an end dump I see tons of work got to be a good side
We vacation in this area for many years.Sorry for the disruption of lives, business, and homes. Matanzas, Doc Ford's, the $2 beer at the lime green block building on the right cattycorner from the Chevron ( Fantasys). Rebuild it, Florida. You're strong.
they're strong but mother nature is stronger
I played Bonita Bills' with my Band the Wayward souls Monday before this happened!! So sad to see!!!!!
Very sad. We'll be back better though!
how are u now harry
@@patrickprendergast9589 I'm okay. The Beach on the other hand not so good.
Awful destruction. Having visited this area it is really heartbreaking thinking about all the lives, families affected by this
good time to be in the boat recovery/salvage biz !
True!
this is so very sad, lost of lives, lost of homes, lost of jobs, friends, family, pets, every thing, so so very sad....
It’s absolutely crazy to think I was down there for the Fourth of July this year, driving right through Fort Myers right by Doc Ford’s and Dixie Fish. I also ate at Snug Harbor a few times. Seems like a total loss. Sad.
I don’t mean to make it about me, but it’s just that we are cognitive dissonance like I think it’s totally fine still but the reality is it isn’t I can’t really comprehend it.
They'll be back!
@@CaribbeanCastaways “and in greater numbers!” (Star wars quote) i had to lol.
I live here and this is the worst I have ever experienced and now see, the horrible damage. 😢
I can't get over how many boats apparently survived on the moorings there. I guess those things are screwed into the bottom pretty well.
I thought the same thing. But some did break free. They're resting at Salty Sam's.
Better chance of surviving on a mooring ball. Surprised the Marinas let boats stay at the docks. My brother-in law always had to move his to a hurricane hole or be put on the hard.
What a Sad reality, it doesn't get any worst. 100% Lost☹
This is so Sade 😲😕 to see My pears 🙏 go out to all the people
From Orlando, pretty impressive. Do you guys all have your power back yet, or most of you? Our damage even in Charlie, power line wise, didn't look nearly that bad and we were out at the house for three weeks.
AND taking a large tree off of the roof, so power for AC would have been nice. Bought window units for the living room and bedroom so we can run them on a small generator now. Still a PIA, but massively better. This storm did very little in Orlando area, a few places of local flooding. Some lakes and rivers REALLY high, like Jessup/Monroe/St Johns, but very little wind damage.
Power was out three days this time, but with AC available it wasn't nearly as bad. Most everything else is secondary, IMO, from a power standpoint.
Still no power at the marina.
what day did you take the video over Bonita Bills? my boat is in there and it looks like it may have moved a little from when i "tied" it. I was sitting against a submerged boat that kept me from moving it and it looks like that boat may have completed sinking.
Hey, i ahoy that on Friday I believe. Hope your boat is still okay.
@@CaribbeanCastaways thanks! It survived, astonishingly enough. Im going to put her somewhere safer very soon.
So sad to see so much destruction 😢
Whew!
How long to fix this nightmare..I could not emagine...the trash ..where to put it all
How did the boats inside the storage building fair?
Pretty well. Almost every on the racks above the bottom level was fine. The ones on the bottom did float off their racks and bang around when the surge came in.
@@CaribbeanCastaways That is good to know. So, we know they do work. I do believe building codes should be changed from lesson learned, as a result of this storm.
@@CaribbeanCastaways BTW, thank you for the videos you are producing. I have not been able to get out and look around. My focus is repairing my home, and I was 22 miles upriver from the ocean. (Olga area)
How do they dispose of all these boats? Where do they go?
Insurance companies hire salvage companies to come and pick them up. After that vim not sure. Maybe parted out or if bad enough just crushed up.
Que deserto? triste demais
Are you heading north or south on the 865?
This is so heart breaking.
In the first part I was heading south to the beach. There some shots later of me heading north.
Can’t believe people were able to afford to buy all those big boats!
They worked.
@@davehoffman9072 I work to, but wouldn’t have been able to buy something that big!
@@grammysal Yea but certain people have different mentalities than others That’s what gets people what they want and others can’t
rember greed is good lol
And a lot of the larger boats were charters too for fishing and day sailing.
I can see why insurance companies are scurrying away like rats. The bill for carting just one of those yachts back to the basin will be 5 figures
And yet they constantly have new record profit years, don't they?
Where is Hollywood, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, Stephen King? All these people we have shit about but there is nobody stepping forward. Floridians need help. They have lost everything. Have not seen any news from
Insurance companies.
Nobody expects boats and mobile homes to be anything but heaps of trash after storm hurricanes. But for the money spent for decades of enjoyment the risk of total loss is nothing if you think about it. Thing about hurricanes in these modern times are we know they are coming. Hopefully people heed warnings and get out of harms way. It is those places with earthquakes and massive tornadoes the nation needs to question letting people live!
Don’t see A. G T either helping out nor Simon.
The funeral music ... ?
Weeping,
Mother Nature reminding you who really owns the place.......humans are just very unappreciative guests
Was there in Nov. 2023,there is still a lot of devastation and destruction that has not been taken care.Thus government has failed those who have been impacted by this tragedy. More concerned with aiding non citizen migrants and making sure felons are treated right, than making sure our citizens are taken care of and can live and work and recreate in safe, crime free environments
We are getting there, one day at a time.
Must be terrible there.
Getting better day by day
Didn’t mean Oliver. Lol
You pays your big bucks and you takes your chances . Go figure .
Where is Elon Musk, Bill Gates, etc. Where are the billionaires? ???????
They’ll be along shortly to buy everything up, and turn it into another luxury condo complex.
Zc in TV
I was in Keyport after Sandy it was the same thing but they recovered pretty quick
That's our plan!
SO hard to watch.
Harder to live through.
You know to share and someone else's tragedy is actually a clinical medical disease you should get help you're not even a news agency to some UA-camr
"You know to share and someone else's tragedy is actually a clinical medical disease"
Really, what's it called? Haven't seen that in the DSM. Telling everyone what they should and shouldn't do is a bit of a problem, though. Especially when it concerns you not one tiny bit.
You might want to look into a writing course, because there's this thing called punctuation that makes your writing more readable. People tend to carry more weight when they don't appear to have flunked out of second grade.
@@MrJdsenior Karma comes around John
Get out of there and stay out it's only going. To getvwirse and Insurance is unaffordable it's the highest in the nation
I doubt it. Positive attitude my friend.
Sell and get the hell out
Nah, it's paradise and home. We'll be back stronger.
Where is Trump ? Hello. Mr Trump. Hello. Sir. Florida is screwed up.
He was in his bunker . Where else ???
I do not feel sorry for these people at all they know where they live and the risk associated with it
Brilliant. I'm guessing that was just a troll and you are not really that heartless and dumb. There are no areas within a million miles where weather is not a risk, except on the moon.
Buzz off, dude. The area is their home and their life.
