Just for the record, i never, ever, want to be ANYWHERE in 150 knots of wind!!!

Except maybe a fortified underground tornado shelter, but no I wouldn't want to be there either.

BTW my boat's so light and has so much windage, I'd be afraid it would go airborne in a lot less than 150 knots. We saw about 100mph in Sandy, but my boat was tied on three sides with doubled lines in a double-wide finger slip, with sails and canvas removed, in a well protected harbor. (Came through unscathed).
