Well, looks like Tropical Storm Fay may be heading for the Florida gulf coast (and may possibly arrive as a hurricane) and that means I have to start thinking about doing something with my boat. Luckily, it's only a 12 foot aluminum boat so I can stick it in my garage and leave the trailer in the yard.
But, for those owners without that possibility, how do you prep for a hurricane? I was thinking of sticking the plug in the boat and filling it with water, as I could use the room in my garage for other things besides my boat, but was afraid I'd collapse the trailer, or that the wind would blow the water out of the boat and blow it off the trailer.
So, what say you all? How do you prepare a trailer boat?
