The winds were picking up and the harbor traffic was light. A day before tropical storm "Hanna" is to arrive and to my surprise not many boaters are getting ready for it!Forecast is for sustained winds close to 45 mph and gusts to over 60 mph! I was debating to myself if I should hual hull.But with trees,full bloom weeping willow and maples and pines surrounding my house, I figured there would be a better chance of damage at home from falling limbs. The dock is in a cove inside Gloucester's inner harbor.....no trees within 300 feet! To lessen the chance of loosing my bimini top and to decrease wind surface, I removed it. Secured the lines and I'm ready to take on the storm.....I hope!
