Violent Noyo Harbor Storm Sinks Boat and Damages Docks
A fierce early morning storm at Noyo Harbor sank the Cavalier and bent piers while three boats went adrift and five to six foot surges damaged two docks. Charmaine broke moorings colliding with a dock, several pilings were shattered, and oil spills were reported though no fires or injuries occurred. Coast Guard crews and Fort Bragg firefighters worked to lash vessels and pump waters as high tide loomed. Highway 20 was briefly closed by a downed power line, delaying rescue efforts.
