Hurricane season is here, so if your a boat owner you should prepare a plan now to protect your craft if a storm approaches. I found this nice report by the Naples Daily News staff that gives some very good tips on ways to protect your boat when a storm comes your way. Get your boat out of the water as soon as possible.
Never leave your boat on davits or lifts.
If you have to leave your boat in the water double your lines and use extra long spring lines.
If you can, trailer your boat and move it to a location as far away from the water as possible.
Strap your boat securely to the trailer and tie the trailer to fixed objects.
Remove all loose objects.
Lightweight boat owners should deflate trailer tiers, place blocks under the axle then fill the boat about a third full of water.
Planning ahead will let you quickly prepare your boat for the storm and protect your property.
