Sadly, I watched my boat go up in flames Fri. night while watching TV waiting for hurricane Ike. The first fire in Galveston was the dry storage facility at the Galveston Yacht Basin. It was a 1983 Tournament 19, not worth a lot, but I had put countless hours in restoring it. It was one of several Gradys in there and about 100 others. I'm not complaining, my boat was a luxury and is insignificant in comparison to the people that lived on Galveston and Bolivar and lost everything, there homes, jobs, and lives. I am grateful to Danny Medellin, manager of the dry storage area, and his assistants, who always took good care of my boat, and are probably now out of a job and may have lost their homes. God bless guys.
My question is this, I didn't have insurance (stupid) but the dry storage area said all boats inside were insured to $100,000........so in theory I was covered. Has anyone out there had dealings with this type of claim and have any advise?
