With the <strong data-start=\"414\" data-end=\"478\">Atlantic hurricane season running from June 1 to November 30<\/strong>, and the <strong data-start=\"488\" data-end=\"541\">Eastern Pacific season from May 15 to November 30<\/strong>, Boat Owners on both coasts should be ready well before peak storm activity. Want to know what forecasters are saying about this year\u2019s season? <strong data-start=\"551\" data-end=\"632\"><a class=\"\" href=\"#\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"553\" data-end=\"630\">Read our 2025 Hurricane Season Outlook featuring Tropical Storm Andrea<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"620\" data-end=\"698\">Here are 10 essential tips to help you prepare your boat for hurricane season.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"700\" data-end=\"741\"><strong>1. Monitor NOAA forecasts regularly<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"742\" data-end=\"1067\">Stay informed by checking updates from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). This includes tracking active systems, watches, and warnings relevant to your marina, mooring location, or haul-out yard. Reliable forecasts help you act early before conditions become dangerous.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1069\" data-end=\"1109\"><strong>2. Know your marina\u2019s risk profile<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1110\" data-end=\"1316\">Evaluate your marina\u2019s natural protection. Is it in a protected bay, or is it open to surge and wind? If the latter, plan to move your boat to a more sheltered area or haul it out entirely ahead of a storm.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1318\" data-end=\"1354\"><strong>3. Use high-quality dock lines<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1355\" data-end=\"1561\">Select strong, marine-grade lines with some stretch to absorb shock loads. Double or triple up, and adjust angles to reduce chafe. Add anti-chafing sleeves or even wrap towels or hose around critical areas.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1563\" data-end=\"1610\"><strong>4. Reinforce cleats and attachment points<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1611\" data-end=\"1812\">Inspect your cleats to make sure they\u2019re securely mounted. Through-bolted cleats with backing plates offer the best strength. If possible, tie off to pilings rather than dock cleats for more stability.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1814\" data-end=\"1854\"><strong>5. Strengthen your anchoring setup<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1855\" data-end=\"2095\">If your boat is moored, upgrade to a <strong data-start=\"1892\" data-end=\"1908\">helix anchor<\/strong> for superior holding power. Use chain between your anchor and rope rode to reduce underwater chafing. Avoid rocky bottoms where anchors may drag or damage your hull if surge levels drop.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2097\" data-end=\"2134\"><strong>6. Haul out early (if possible)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2135\" data-end=\"2355\">Getting your boat out of the water is often the safest move \u2014 especially in regions prone to surge and flooding. Work with your local yard to schedule early haul-outs, as demand spikes quickly once a storm is forecasted.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2357\" data-end=\"2403\"><strong>7. Secure dry-stored boats to the ground<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2404\" data-end=\"2622\">If your boat is on land, strap it down with heavy-duty hurricane-rated tie-downs. Boats on trailers should also be blocked, and wheels chocked or removed if possible. Position your boat above likely storm surge levels.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2624\" data-end=\"2663\"><strong>8. Strip down and stow loose gear<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2664\" data-end=\"2840\">Remove canvas covers, biminis, electronics, cushions, life jackets, and anything else that could blow away or catch wind. The fewer items on deck, the lower the risk of damage.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2842\" data-end=\"2881\"><strong>9. Document your boat\u2019s condition<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2882\" data-end=\"3092\">Take detailed, time-stamped photos of your boat from multiple angles \u2014 inside and out. Save them to a cloud service or waterproof drive. These will be invaluable for insurance purposes if your boat is impacted.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"3094\" data-end=\"3137\"><strong>10. Never stay onboard during a storm<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"3138\" data-end=\"3370\">Even for seasoned boaters, staying with your vessel during a hurricane is incredibly dangerous. Storm surge, downed power lines, and flying debris are serious threats. Prioritize your safety and evacuate according to local guidance.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3390\" data-end=\"3641\">Storm seasons can be unpredictable, but your prep doesn&#8217;t have to be. Following these guidelines \u2014 and monitoring forecasts from trusted sources like <strong data-start=\"3534\" data-end=\"3567\"><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.noaa.gov\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"3536\" data-end=\"3565\">NOAA<\/a><\/strong> can greatly improve your boat\u2019s chances of riding out the storm safely.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3804\" data-end=\"3909\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether your boat is docked in a slip, moored in open water, or stored on land, hurricane prep is essential for protecting your vessel and the surrounding environment.
