Tampa Yacht & Country Club
The Challenge
Located directly on the waterfront, Tampa Yacht & Country Club faces constant exposure to extreme flooding caused by storm surge, heavy rainfall, and tidal influence. The property's proximity to the water means flood risk is an ongoing operational concern, with the potential to damage facilities, disrupt operations, and impact the overall member experience.
The Recommendations
Flood Risk America evaluated the club's most vulnerable areas and recommended the installation of a custom flood protection system using the FRA Flood Panel, designed to withstand significant water depth and pressure.
The solution was selected for its ability to:
- Provide robust protection in extreme flood conditions
- Deploy quickly when severe weather threatens
- Protect critical areas without permanent structural changes
This approach ensured the club had a dependable line of defense against major flood events.
The Result
During a severe flooding event, Tampa Yacht & Country Club experienced approximately 7 feet of floodwater. Their custom FRA Flood Panel system was deployed and performed as designed, successfully holding back floodwaters even at this extreme level.
Protected areas remained secure, damage was avoided, and recovery efforts were minimized. The system's performance at 7 feet of water provided facility managers with confidence that their property is prepared to handle future flooding events.
