Is there a boat evacuation plan in place if owners are absent?
Baker’s Bay maintains plans and procedures to evacuate boats in the Marina in the event that owners are absent. Larger sailing and motor boats are secured using additional tie-downs in the Marina, while smaller vessels are raised and placed in dry storage. Inland dry storage is very safe for boats during hurricanes. The greatest threat to property and boats is the wind and / or storm surge associated with a hurricane. Dry-dock storage at Baker’s Bay will be designed and located to protect members’ boats and minimize damage.
