Yachtafun, our Gemini sailing catamaran is now located at New Bern, NC. Storm surge typically is not a huge problem here, but I wanted to know what to expect for the New Bern Grand Marina’s parking lot. The NOAA Storm Surge Flooding Map confirmed the highest spot away from a potential surge of Hermine as it came up from Florida.
I recommend you save the links for future use and pass them on to friends.
