Ok, But you need to provide the names and dates of at least 5
Hurricanes that you had 72+MPH winds.

I have one more to go on RedCloud...I've been thru at least a
dozen...but only 4 on RedCloud.


How long have you owned her? we've been thru 6 or 7 named storms and two
hurricanes on the tugboat, and that's in 4 years.


As a member you will receive a free Hurricane Ace's sticker to apply to
your cockpit, If you perfer..I
will provide you with an offical insigna and you can paint it on
yerself.


Sounds cool. I will definitely apply, expect to qualify next year unless
Wilma pays a surprise vist up here.

BTW if we get a Cat 4 or 5, you will not see me "weathering the storm"
on board, I make the boat as safe as possible and then go far away. The
'Winnie W.' is a proud & lovely vessel but is not worth our lives.


Do we have any others who have weathered 5 hurricanes on 1 boat?


Bubbles has, but only in his fantasies. He took photos, too.
