Tsunami strikes pacific coast

[Scott Galloway]

And one more tsunami surge video for you. This is from another camera and it captured what I believe to be the tusnami surge that I described above. If not, then it was its twin brother. See:

The first few frames are taken of the surge hitting G dock. Then you see the breaking wave running up the main channel, and the next series of frames show the impact on the three fingers of W dock where my boat is moored. My boat is actually in the video, but you can only see the mast and mainsail cover as the surge hits the last finger of W dock. The very last few frames show boats on X dock as the surge hits them. You can get an idea of how much stress might have been placed on a cleat or chock by the force of that wave. One boat I saw that day had been torn off of V dock. The boat still had the dock cleats attached to its mooring lines.
