Last preparations

Irene will be almost a direct hit with gust up to 85mph early Sunday here.
Took the head sail down and wrapped the main tightly so we should be ok. Only worry is the storm surge. If we're 10ft over normal high tide conditions the dock will float off the pilons and it will be a big mess. Unfortunately we have a new moon and high tide will coincide with the strongest winds from the east pushing lots of water into the sound. Combined with the runoff due to heavy rains this could be a close call.
All wrapped up
