In Response To: Re: H Rita -- 18:45 Satalite (Capt. Mike Holmes)

The best defense Mike is to get out of the way period.Secure your property and get your boat out of Dodge to inland up a fresh water river out of the tidal zone.Patrick's right on the money. Oh yes Patrick riding the Nereus in 30-40 feet seas is no fun either especially after taking on a water supply in Mexico.(Tender sailors didn't understand what a Navy shower was and exhausted our water supply in a foeign port.Combonation of rough seas and dissentary. Nasty situations seem to grow among themselves. Boats are more aquadynamically engineered than repair tubs.

I feel like I'm living in a firing range dodging bullets with these storms all around. I know one day I'll probablyy be in a direct eye blow but hopefully not after last year's very close encounter.

Brilliant expose on hurricane predication.
