Default Boats docked on coastal waters question....

If it is possible you want to move your boat off the water and move it
inland. If it is not possible you want to tie it up, with extra lines and
spring lines, and keep it off of the dock. Even if it is covered by
insurance, you will have to pay for the deductible, put up the headache of
having it repaired, and anything you can do to minimize a claim is to your
benefit.

My insurance gives me an extra 10% off any year I do not file a claim, but
most importantly, it is the right thing to do to minimize the probability
you will have to file a claim.

Find your insurance agent's home address and send him flowers. When he

calls
to thank you, remind him that you know where he lives.





So the concensus is that you tie the boat up and hope for the best. I

would
have thought that a boat would take a severe thrashing beating up against
the dock once the water churned up due to the storm. Thanks for the
feedback.
