same storm took out our three bay hanger that we replaced with the carocell floor hanger.. deposited their three bay building in the next door neighbors back yard but did not do any damage to the three airplanes parked in it...

Reminds me of the 2011Tohoku Tsunami. A protected marina which was back in inland waters was totally destroyed (gone). 150 boats were damaged. While my sailboat was completely exposed to the open ocean on the same shore in shallow water and had no damage. Totally unpredictable. And a miracle to see my little ship still floating.
