wheelerwbrian is on a distinguished road
I'd haul, no question, now. During Isabel I had two boats, one that I was selling and the other I had bought and both were on the hard, for which I was deeply appreciative. We live on Cockey Creek off of the Magothy and our dock was well under six feet of water. Presuming that we had done what the books say and not not remained on the boat, we couldn't have reached the boat to extend the dock lines so it would have pulled loose or pulled under. Our neighbor who lives on his boat (his mother in law lived in the house...) stayed up all night extending lines, and all the next day to make sure his trawler didn't come down on top of a piling.
