Haul is best. Tied off with 4pt. tie and chafe guard and double lines is next best. You must be able to leave enough slack in the lines to account for water rise without risking damage to the boat from docks/pilings.
I've been though 3 on the bay and spent the night on land watching the boat in the slip during 2 of them (from clubhouse with other owners). We were able to go out and wade in knee deep water on the docks and make some line adjustments while the storms were in progress but these were both Cat1 storms. I wouldn't want to try to attempt it in anything stronger so it is bestto get the lines worked out well ahead of the storm and leave as much slack as possible.
For those with BoatUS insurance...I believe they help pay for a haulout for a named storm.
