THE home of retired Claxton Bay fisherman Kenny Koat, where he had lived for more than 25 years, collapsed on Friday night following heavy rainfall and strong winds.

For hours on Sunday, Koat, 55, tried to salvage lumber from the collapsed structure where his home once stood on Mathura Avenue, on Sookoo Trace in Claxton Bay.
