I remember, years ago, I was in Ft Lauderdale during a heavy blow. I was up in a hotel room overlooking the ocean. The port was closed due to the weather.... Cargo ships were off shore, I listened to the traffic on my handheld VHF. They were talking about having both anchors out, throttles full and still barely standing still. Now that was a pretty heavy blow. They didn't want to give up their place in line for when the port opened again.
