Glad she survived that storm ok! Also a good example of why to take off sails if a hurricane is on the way. Once a hurricane reaches a cat 3 or higher, it may even be a good idea to start lowering the masts down too. Flying debris in the air moving at high speeds could damage the mast and standing rigging. Branches, parts from roof tops, vehicle parts, you name it.

@warspite2 this was during the middle of the Storm

I was glad to have taken down the sails and more I removed just about everything but the Galley sink

spent the day yesterday reassembling
