We've got a low pressure system and a northeast breeze We've got a falling barometer and rising seas We've got the cumulonimbus and a possible gale We've got a force nine blowing on the Beaufort scale (Billy Joel - Stormfront) We've done what we can. We added a couple hundred feet more dock lines and Hammertime is almost in a hammock. Certainly any spider would be proud of the web we created. We went to town and bought beer, wine and rum. Am I forgetting something, oh yes, we got food too. Lots. The holding tank is empty, the water tanks are full. The batteries are charged and our diesel is topped up with a couple of extra jugs lashed to the boat. We even did our laundry in anticipation of the power going out. Now the hard part starts - we wait.....
