dutyfree 83 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Went to check our boat yesterday morning. Was just bloody lucky in that it went through about 4 berths away. Hard to describe the damage. Spoke to a guy who was onboard his yacht at the time and also just on the edge of it. Sounds like it was mayhem and thanks to him and the staff many boats were retrieved and tied back up. Seeing relatively new mooring cleats ripped out of the marina is pretty eye opening.

raz88 59 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Yep, although the marina is probably more inclined to use it as justification to not have them "it's too dangerous"... Friends with a 43 foot cat had the pier lifted up and dropped on the back of their boat! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rehabilitated 41 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Multihulls should also use there anchors to keep the bow down to counter act some of the force. Reverse in like Med berthing, anchor on the side mid pole section opposite finger side.also when such extreme forecasts are given. Island Time and mattm 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
