Re: pulling your boat?
 

I have a real concern with the sunday morning high tide. Im in shark river just west of the rail road bridge. High tide is 7:30 AM and the storm should be just about due east of us at that point. Im leavin my boat in. Good floating docks....double up some lines...more fenders. Even thinking about sleeping on the boat Sat night for shits and giggles.

Hauling Legacy. I rode out several storms in Great Kills Harbor and watched boats sink at the dock and sailboats break off moorings and crash into boats at the adjacent dock in 40-60 knot winds. If this storm goes 60-75 knots there will be major issues in my harbor. Add in the new moon tides and you've got even more trouble.

I've had the boat for 13 seasons and hope to have it for 30 more.

Boat is sitting 20' in the air on a rack. Rack comes down, BOAT US mails me a nice check that should cover my party boat fares for the next 15-20 years.

Just got back from double lining in Seaview marina. I have never pulled for a storm in the past 40 years. Much easier on floating docks than it use to be on fixed docks.
Make sure you have enough lines, 2nd line should just have a little more play than your 1st line. As 1st stretches 2nd picks up to help.

Everyone stay safe, boats can be replaced, lives can't!

I am out. If anyone is looking for "safer ground" and can't get their boat out of the water in time...pm me....maybe you can use my slip - not sure how it would work with the marina ....but may be worth it...

Re: pulling your boat?

Just hauled her out of AH Marina what a sh*t show already. I am sure anyone whose in the marina knows that you can leave your boat on the trailer in the yard for no cost but if you didn't now you do!

Re: pulling your boat?

Re: pulling your boat?
