Default October Ooops!

Hopetown harbor has very little anchoring room due to all the moorings
present, but it's pretty well protected. In fact, from Marsh Harbour, it
is
our most immediately available hurricane hole. In speaking with our
friend,
we learned that 15 of the moorings there were installed when he had taken
over Abaco Charters, now defunct following hurricane Floyd, which saw
sustained winds of 240mph. snip


I hope that's a typo, Skippy. Sustained winds of 240mph would be what? a
category 10? lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Floyd#Bahamas

Maybe you meant 240kph????
