I loved that story.


That was Hurricane Charlie 4 years ago. We'd only owned the boat for
about 6 weeks and had no permanent dock of our own at the time. They
bumped up the forecast to Cat 3+ with about 24 hours to go and we
decided to high tail it up river as far inland as we could get.

This one is much different, looks like it will not even make full
hurricane strength.
