An easy mistake to make. Always check the Beaufort scale before leaving your pontoon. Ironically a marinara and I stepped out to help him berth. Some things can't be avoided. I consider us fortunate the winds did not cause worse damage. The insurance can take care of this. Crashing into the side of TandEadapt was a contingency is all.
