Dear fellow sailors, Sorry for my delayed reply. I've been out of pocket for a few days due to work. My wife and I live aboard our '80 Landfall 38 in North Palm Beach. By the grace of God we escaped the brunt of Matthew without a scratch. I had "spider webbed" Nina in our slip with about 2 dozen dock lines giving enough slack for tidal surge, etc. I believe our average wind speeds during the storm were about 50mph with gusts to 75. The marina where we are is considered a hurricane hole and it lived up to that designation. We obviously did not ride out the storm on board, but rather went to some friends house for a couple days. We feel extremely fortunate. Areas further north such as Jacksonville were not as fortunate from what I hear.
I has been 11 years since we had a hurricane of significance here in south FL (Wilma), and I'm hoping for another 11 year stretch after this one. God bless to everyone.
