Donna, I think it's just as many lines as you can have. Protect against one not working by knowing it would take multiple ones to break loose for you to have problems. Lines and fenders. I don't see your marina as a high risk location although I do think it could be hit by Emily. Also could be missed. Looks like it will hit land with 45 mph winds but they'll slow fairly quickly to 35 or at tops 40 mph.

Now you tie up perfectly, remove potential flying objects and then, unfortunately, dependent on others having done the same. Hopefully the dockmaster will look around well.
