The roof has a greater slope to prevent debris building up (the previous sailing club building collapsed a few years ago under the weight of mud and debris). All the boats are removed to the high grassy levee bank above when the river is about to rise. The roller doors are opened and the area hosed out as the river waters fall to wash the mud away. <br />Karen @ Pieces of Contentmenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00719349569606790410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7770419908701070201.post-32571131173397648812015-05-10T12:15:32.872+10:002015-05-10T12:15:32.872+10:00I was concerned about the first shot but I'm g...I was concerned about the first shot but I'm glad they are prepared.
