[C320-list] Hurricane Earl

[Kurt Budelmann]

Seaworthy, the Boat US magazine showed that the best preparation was on land 
with jackstands and guide wires preventing the boat from moving.  I think 
they had 4 to 6 guide wires anchored in the ground around the boat.  Also, 
their insurance will offset the cost.
