Anyone else under an evacuation order for Hurricane Florence. Took us by surprise a little as we are on the northern edge of the red zone. But at 5' above sea level, kids, stepkids and pets we're outta here soon.
I took most everything of value off the boat (tools, some electronics, cushions, etc etc), took off all canvas, sails etc. Followed the guidance out there. But I've seen opinions about tying up that vary. I decided to tie up with double lines and some play, not tight up against the floating dock. I also made sure my boom was as stationary as possible. Make sense? The play in the line was my only doubt. I plan to check everything over once more tomorrow.
