<p class="MsoNormal">As you are all aware a storm is scheduled for tomorrow. Please secure any gear and equipment on the bulkheads and docks. Also make efforts to additionally secure your vessels if needed. Make sure all dragger doors are shipped inside
your vessels to prevent damage to the docks and piles. Any items such as trash, empty bait barrels, and waste oil containers are properly disposed of before the end of today. If there are any concerns or questions please contact the office. Also report any
damage or issues that may arise before, during, or after the storm. <o:p></o:p></p>
