Storm @ Greers

Had a big storm hit Hill Creek Marina this atternoon and did alot of damage to the marina and boats.
Pictures show Heavy Damage to Marina, Search Continues for Survivors

man thats aweful.....hope noone is hurt

Hey Creekslick,

Were you on the water when that happened?

Crappie pro and I was on Greer's between Sugar Loaf and Choctaw when it hit.....we made a run for a community boat dock with an empty slip on the back side of a point that blocked most of the wind and rode it out there. We beat the storm by seconds. It was a pretty rough storm. Not only did it do damage it shut the fishing down big time. I hope no one was hurt. Was your toon At the marina Wayne?

Yea Don they have slips available. 501-654-2555

I bet they won't for long... Goodness! I've launched there quite a bit and feel bad for them. Right before their big weekend of the year, too. I hope they can make it. It's not easy running a facility like that.

I'm glad no one was hurt and I hope everyone had the proper insurance. Geez... what a bummer.

My mom just sent me the photos. Thats terrible what happened. Our cabin is the last one on the right til the marina. Its supposed to be ok. My neighbor's boat sunk tho. Terrible..
