Screw anchors and big tie down straps are your friend. You might also
want to consider unstepping your mast although I know that is a big
pain/expense. On balace I think you're better off on the hard than in
the water.

PS, another consideration is to put plywood sheets under your jack
stands since you are on dirt as I recall. Plywood will help keep the
stands from sinking in when the ground gets muddy.
