It's not always the best idea to pull...put it in your driveway and many times a tree will hit you and cause more damage than if you left her in. (This happened to my cousin in NC...he was Hugo'ed big time and his boat was basically broken in two) Also it is common in florida to see boats that were pulled and blocked actually blown over. Now yards are tieing them to the pavement like airplanes.

I may move to a big town mooring and toss a chain from the morring ball to the boat as a backup if the line chafes thru. The only thing you have to worry about are other boats breaking free.
(My guy kicks me off the dock in a storm...it is the one thing I hate about my slip)

Protected coves with a killer mooring is the best but if you have a solid boat shed...now your livin.

This looks like it could get nasty and screw up the fishing for a couple weeks.

Best of luck to you all
