IronWind is on a distinguished road
Hurricane season in Florida

Having been here most of my life, there is NO safe place.. One just accepts the fact and does the best one can.
Tornados, Wind Storms ect this tiem of year are to be expected along with tropical depressions.
Today while on the water We seen a nasty waterspout... All normal in This area.
Onlything one can do on a upcoming Hurricane is pull the boat out.
In 98 I was trying to gey my boat pulled quick as Hurricane Georges was on the West Coast.. Everybody was freaking out and one could not get into a hauler... I wound up Anchoring in the middle of Charlotte Harbor
on 500 ft of line.. Hurricane passed offshore by about 90miles.. We still had wind gusts 40-50 mph..
Hurricanes... dont worry of them, but evac if they come..
Its nomal Florida Cracker life to accept them
Dont ruin your fun in dread of them.
