HURRICANE IAN - San Carlos Island, Doc Fords, Salty Sam's Marina, Bonita Bills Compilation

Sad watch from Canada....had many fine times at Bonita Bills and the beach strip...God bless

Watching from Australia and can't believe how bad it is, wish everyone the best to get back on your feet. Thanks for capturing this, love to see more on the rebuilding and clean up too, just can't imagine how some of those boats will get recovered.

Thank you for this video. A lot of us had nowhere to run. We had to hunker down where we were, not realizing how close we were to potential annihilation. This is the fourth week since ... I'm glad I'm only seeing it now. God be with all affected, especially those who mourn. God be with all the kind people who showed up with water, food, and generators to charge our phones so we could let our families know we were ok.

Thanks for putting this video together so the world can see the Heartbreak this storm caused. Many lost their homes, businesses, jobs, and way of life. I know that many of the retirement mobile home villages will probably not be permitted to rebuild due to new building laws, many of these were awesome close knit communities that are simply gone.

The boats were tossed like tinker toys into the mangroves. I’ve seen it in person and the raw POWER of this hurricane was beyond anything I could have imagined

The scale of devastating is mind boggling

So many memories. Dammit, just dammit. Sending much love to all who live, work and played along coastal Lee & Collier Counties. Godspeed y’all.

My heart is broken. RIP Santos house. Mahalo to Bonita Bills for the thousands of awesome breakfasts and peel-n-eat shrimp, especially after Irma when none of us had power. A hui hou.

Was there at Salty Sam's (12:40) with the Mrs this past March for the first time. Hopefully it was not also the last time!

If I knew how to work on boats or had a dump truck or an end dump I see tons of work got to be a good side

Every time I'd go to Doc Ford, I'd see that tiny mobile home park next to Gulf Star and always said to myself, I'd hate to be in one of those tiny homes during a hurricane.

We vacation in this area for many years.Sorry for the disruption of lives, business, and homes. Matanzas, Doc Ford's, the $2 beer at the lime green block building on the right cattycorner from the Chevron ( Fantasys). Rebuild it, Florida. You're strong.

Awful destruction. Having visited this area it is really heartbreaking thinking about all the lives, families affected by this

I played Bonita Bills' with my Band the Wayward souls Monday before this happened!! So sad to see!!!!!

good time to be in the boat recovery/salvage biz !

this is so very sad, lost of lives, lost of homes, lost of jobs, friends, family, pets, every thing, so so very sad....

I live here and this is the worst I have ever experienced and now see, the horrible damage. 😢

It’s absolutely crazy to think I was down there for the Fourth of July this year, driving right through Fort Myers right by Doc Ford’s and Dixie Fish. I also ate at Snug Harbor a few times. Seems like a total loss. Sad. I don’t mean to make it about me, but it’s just that we are cognitive dissonance like I think it’s totally fine still but the reality is it isn’t I can’t really comprehend it.

I can't get over how many boats apparently survived on the moorings there. I guess those things are screwed into the bottom pretty well.

From Orlando, pretty impressive. Do you guys all have your power back yet, or most of you? Our damage even in Charlie, power line wise, didn't look nearly that bad and we were out at the house for three weeks. AND taking a large tree off of the roof, so power for AC would have been nice. Bought window units for the living room and bedroom so we can run them on a small generator now. Still a PIA, but massively better. This storm did very little in Orlando area, a few places of local flooding. Some lakes and rivers REALLY high, like Jessup/Monroe/St Johns, but very little wind damage. Power was out three days this time, but with AC available it wasn't nearly as bad. Most everything else is secondary, IMO, from a power standpoint.
