Both waves struck the harbor at Charlotte Amalie first as a large recession of water, followed by a bore, which eyewitness accounts describe as a 4.5 to 6.1 meter wall of water. … The waves destroyed many small boats anchored in the harbor, leveled the town's iron warf, and either flooded out or destroyed all buildings located along the waterfront area. }}</ref>。
