at least I don't have to do any storm prep: the boat is at the dock in a hurricane hole and I left all of the dock lines and fenders in place. Matter of fact, she's in exactly in the same condition as she was during Irene.
On another note, in addition to a sailboat going up on the rocks on Junk Island which I mentioned the other day, there's a good size schooner on the beach in New London in between the dockominium and where Pfizer's research HQ used to be. I think both boats broke away from their moorings. Lord knows who many boats would have washed ashore in a Cat 2 or higher storm.
