[QUOTE="TriBull, post: 503382, member: 32176"] Follow-up: All went well… Idalia went further north enough to limit damage in our area to mostly storm surge vs wind damage. My rig didn’t budge, and I’m confident that would have been the case with even 100+ mph winds. I truly believe that the dog tether is sufficient if turned in deep with a pipe lever, which I did - and then strapped down strongly with no slack! I was surprised, however, with the number of boat/trailer rigs I saw while driving around today, that weren’t secured in any manner. Several just seemed to pull them up close to a walI, at best! can maybe understand a big heavy fiberglass boat, but I saw many small rigs, including tin boats, that were just free standing! As some one mentioned - doing something is better than nothing! [/QUOTE]
