Default Leave her (My boat) in the Bahamas?

My attention span for cruising is seriously short and I love my work
so I never want to spend more than a couple of weeks aboard my boat
but I do want to take advantage of having her in the Bahamas. Being a
well built 28' S-2 and having a 3'10" draft, she seems ideal for the
shallow Bahamas, a perfect cruiser for someone who does not mind sorta
spartan conditions.
So, is leaving her in the bahamas over hurricane season a
possibility? I'd prefer to have her hauled and put on stands because
then I'd worry less until I got back in late November. Insurance is
not an issue because she is very old and long ago paid for and so I
only have liability insurance. If she gets
destroyed..............well, I'd be sad but also would have an excuse
to build another boat.
Feasible?
