A local NC marina (which was destroyed in the storm that went through
Southport, NC 2 years ago--forgot the name) tried to do something similar to
its slip-holders.
The slip-holders were not required by their lease to move their boats if a
storm was pending and AFAIK, they did not have to pay anything although it did
either generate a law suit or at least the threat of one.
I suspect the now restored marina has added something to their new leases to
require moving boats in the future storm.
FWIW

unless you have bad insurance. I am sure all the various companies will be
fighting it out for some time to come.When Isabel came around here some marinas
ordered all the boats to leave and towed the ones that didn’t up various creeks
and anchored them. It took some time to find them all!I along with about 20
others got bitched at by our marina for being aboard during the storm, the
marina was worried about getting sued if we got hurt. Meanwhile we had NO major
damage at our marina thanks to us adding lines to poorly prepared boats and
where dock cleats were pulling out.* after Andrew while flying relief supplies
I found an entire section of floating dock with some boats still tied to it
someplace out in the Berry Islands, maybe they got sued for stealing the dock!
