If you keep your boat in a marina, read the contract carefully.
Many marinas require a boat to be removed when a hurricane watch is announced.
Inspect your trailer s tires and wheel earings regularly to make sure it is perable when needed. Be sure you have adequate anchors and fenders and extra long lines to secure your boat. Assess the ability of boat cleats to carry eavy loads. Make sure all are backed with stainless steel or aluminum plates. On sailboats, winches and keel-stepped masts can be used to secure lines.
