Bennett Brothers is great and does offer land storage, but Jarrett Bay may be the best at land hurricane storage there is.

We live just off the ICW but the history here of surge is not that much. We also have access to slips away from our home. They are not far up river, just a bit protected and not in the open. We know one day that big hurricane may hit but hurricanes with major impact on boats here are a lot less common than one might believe.

As to insurance, we have no requirements as to hurricane action. We did present a hurricane plan but it made it clear that we had no obligation to do or even attempt anything in that plan. We'll do what we consider prudent in the given situation but will never risk a life over our boat. The area in which we live was reclassified a year or so ago and is no longer in the high flood zone.
