- 1986 PILGRIM 40 HULL No 28
Greetings! We are preparing our trip to the Bahamas.
We are planning to keep our Pilgrim 40 in Florida as we can only enjoy cruising in the USA for 183 days from IRS perspective...
Our insurance broker recommends that we haul-out in the St-John's river area during the Hurricane season? (From June 1st to November 30th) as our vessel with be boat be located between 12°- 35° North and 55°- 85° West during this period.
Before obtaining the new insurance policy... We must submit a hurricane questionnaire to the Marina for Dry Dock Storage and we have to ask the marina the following questions:
Q1: Could you please provide us a copy of your marina obligations in the event of a hurricane?
Q2: Will all the stands supporting the vessel be chained together? Yes or No
Q3: Will the supports be held by helical anchors drilled into the ground? Yes or No
Q4: Could you please provide relevant information and other security measures in your shipyard?
We have to provide copy of the marina contract that clearly indicates the marina's obligations in the event of a hurricane.
Based on your personal experience, we certainly would welcome any suggestions and recommendations as to an appropriate marina location to accommodate us in hauling-out during the summer season...
Thank you for your help!
and Kindest regards! Normand
