Just got back from checking on my boat and the club Olson 30. Lahaina harbor is pretty screwed. About 50% of the dock planks are gone. Most of the boats left the harbor and either anchored out or tied up to a mooring ball. A few dingies left behind either sunk or rolled over.

The harbor is still getting pumped. The water level rises and falls about six feet every ten minutes. It's an E ticket ride.

Other than that Lahaina came through relatively free of damage.



These are the commercial docks. They're normally loaded with boats taking tourists out on whale watches, snorkel trips, etc.


The surge raised the water about two feet above the dock. The boat pictured floated over the top of the dock and sat on it when the water receded.
