On many boats extra attention has been paid to those things that can come undone. Here, a lineup of trussed mailsail covers at Pecan Grove Marina.

Tony Nelson of Garner traveled to Pecan Grove to tend to his Beneteau, “Hemispheres”. He was folding the sail Thursday afternoon. While he had it off the boat, he said, he was going to take it to get cleaned.

The Wildlife Ramp at the end of Midyette Street has been busy this week. It’s the place where smaller boats that usually stay on the water, can be trailered out. Thursday night, some sailors worked to get their mast down in advance of getting the boat out of the water.

Meanwhile, at the other Wildlife dock, Roy Teixeira handled the lines as Jeff Tomczak made adjustments near the hitch of his pontoon boat. It had been in the waters of Smith Creek for about two years, he said, and was being pulled in advance of Irene.

And on to a safer place for the next few days.
