Right you are. It's common sense to remove your boat from
it's slip or dock and either have it hauled and stored in a
secure place or put it on a mooring in a protected harbor
with as little fetch as possible. Around here people even
put them up a creek and tie them spider web fashion to
the mangrove trees.

Any fool who thinks his boat is safe at a dock during a
hurricane deserves what he gets - severe damage or worse . . .

Remember, it's not usually water and waves that sinks boats,
it's the hard stuff around the edges that does.

Bayside (Mooron's place ) was not hit as hard as Terence Bay...we lost about
3 pleasure boats and about 3 fishing boats....all where run into the
shore....
Some real dramatic stuff here.....I have some great pic's of why you don't
leave your boat tied to a dock in a hurricane....

My brand new seaswirl boat survived...... tied to a new mooring I but in the
bay this year.....
