Cape Coral Yacht Club & Boat House Tiki Bar

[@joevalencic5275]

Looks like the Boat House is getting cleaned up and repaired. We vacation every winter in Cape Coral, and my wife reminded me that we still have money on a Boat House gift card, so we will be back when they recover. Thanks for the video!

My parents live near there. They only lost their pool cage. Prayers for all. Great video and thanks for posting.

Things will go back to normal. It’s not the first hurricane or the last but we’re FL strong. ❤

[@JohnJohn-wr1jo]

The new Florida normal... Just gonna cost a whole lot more if your a resident. Gotta keep padding the politicians and developers pockets. That's been the Florida normal for over 100 years. Build on a swamp, let mother nature tear it up and rebuild it over and over and let the peons pay for it... Keep drinking the kool aid.

Thanks for the excellent drone view.

My wife and I sat at the bar at the Yacht Club in May this year, a wonderful place. So sorry you had to go through that. 🇬🇧

[@rcp3764]

Thanks for the great video. I live in the area and come down to the Yacht Club every week.

[@juani352]

That was one of my favorite place to go to. 💔😭

[@sandsrepm]

Went down a couple of times to check it out but they had it blocked off. Nice footage.

[@williampeterman5048]

Love the tiki bar!!!!!

[@lhyork1608]

Thanks for the video…we live in the Cape and it’s nice to see it still standing. Wonder what yellow cast in the water is…..

[@janicerobert2002]

Just wow. We visit every year. So sad to see the damage

[@helenmeopham8158]

What happened to the riverfront properties on Dolphin Drive?

[@wheelgunluvr7406]

My wife worked at the snackbar at the end of the pier in 2007-2008

[@JeffNolan]

good to see all the boats being cleared put of the harbor. The boat ramp is in better shape that i feared. We drove over the day after the hurricane and it looked horrible. Is the ramp still closed?

[@OHMhome]

Such clear footage! Would you share what kind of drone you are using? thank you for this footage. I've been curious but didn't want to be in the way during cleanup.

[@Pjman55]

Thanks. Drone is just a DJI Mavic. Nothing special.

[@OHMhome]

Thank you!

[@robertgembala8532]

Heartbreaking

[@lindaf.2617]

The dark/ redish waters is that from depth changes, or oil from the hurricane? Pjman55

[@Pjman55]

I don’t know.

[@jeckr66]

@@Pjman55 Red Tide?

[@JohnJohn-wr1jo]

Tanins from the river vegetation. The river has always had that tint to it. Makes you wonder how people swim at that beach.

[@daveczarn4373]

Yea the water looks bad too

[@markthomas3730]

the water always looks like that around here...

[@markthomas3730]

the water on this coast always looks like strong tea...or weak coffee. The east coast is much better.

[@Logan-ns7uj]

water looks nasty

[@capelife2665]

The water is usually tea colored. It is where nutrient rich fresh water from the Caloosahatchee meets salt water making it that color.

Too many people lost their livelihoods their homes everything. But I don’t think that area will ever come back and be what it was before. You see a lot of big houses a lot of boats yacht clubs yada yada those kind of people can go anywhere and build anything anywhere. But what about the family lives in a triplex that has a beat up car and working a minimum wage job to take care of your kids and now that job is gone what do you thinks going to happen to them. It would be smart to never stay there and go somewhere else if you can. That hurricane was a terrible thing and don’t forget about the lives that were lost because it. How do you start all over again when now you really have nothing. How do you do it

[@rickrack4812]

Sure it will but a lot of the older homes will have to obviously be torn down because they're only at 7' above sea level versus 14 at slab.... There are new homes down there who were barely touched.

[@joevalencic5275]

How do you recover? You go through your grief, then you put on your big kid pants and do what it takes to survive. Otherwise you live your life as a victim…it’s your choice. You can be an example to the world of whichever path you choose, but it’s still your choice.

10 years from now Ian will only be a memory. This area will see changes as it has since the late 50s. People come and go. It's Florida. The yacht club neighborhood has become more.of a vacation home area every year. A lot of people for different reasons will throw in the towel and sell and move on. People will replace them. My biggest concern even for the homes that were built above the flood level is Cape Corals infrastructure post storms. The water and electric is the long term Achilles heal not to mention the crumbling sea walls. All the years of poor planning and mismanagement in CC will continue to add a huge premium to those who reside there. But they will continue to come
