Update on storm damage: No one was hurt. The store is okay. 100, 200, 500 and 800 appear to be okay overall, but there may be minor damage to boats/lockers blown over from wind. The 300 dock appears to be okay overall, but it broke loose, and a large portion of the 400 dock roof is lying on top of the 300 dock. The 400 dock sustained the most damage - roof torn off, boards broken, electric lines down (the power is shut off except at the main office). Other damaged areas include the old dive shop building, houseboats on main dock, walkways, some structural damage to almost all docks, and lots of and lots of other miscellaneous damage. Please stay off the dock today if at all possible while we continue to assess the damage. Feel free to call the marina at 417-679-3676 if you have questions. Thanks for your cooperation, and thank you all for your concerns!
And one I posted a few minutes ago:
FYI: We are still open for business and (almost) fully operational! As I mentioned before, the store was not damaged. We are pumping gas. The 200, 500, 800 and 600 docks are all accessible. If your boat is on the 100, 300 or 400 docks you'll need to check at the office before attempting to get to your boat. Just Jackie's is open - and if you come by boat we will find a place for you to park! Thanks for all your concerns and well wishes. Unfortunately, this is not our first go-around with Mother Nature. But fortunately, we have plenty of helpers and a lot of years of experience to help us get through this. Just another day in paradise!
