Lol, my wife read me that article and I came here to update this thread. We closed the drain valve last week and contractors were there Friday, think the rain ran em out, repairs should start tomorrow. Expected to take 1-2 weeks. Ramps will remain closed until water comes up.

I heard a bunch of them are thinking about moving to Fork, gets boring for them not have boats run around all day.
