I thought I might be blown right off the dock today. Winds over
35 knots of wind or more. Breaking wave were coming over the

exposed slip at the club. Time to haul out.


How exposed are you, long open fetch? Waves breaking over
the dock don't sound good. Remember you can still set an
anchor to hold you off the dock, we've done that here in
hurricanes. Another thing you can do is borrow some
inflatable dinghies and stuff them between ECHO's hull & the
dock!
