The haul-out for hurricane yards are: Puerto Del Rey just south of Fajardo, P.R.; Independent Boat Yard, St Thomas; Gorda Marine on Virgin Gorda; St Croix Marine, St Croix; and Nanny Cay, 3 others in Road Town, Tortola. They all have websites were you can get the latest rates and contact information.
But generally speaking because of the thousands of boats in the area these haulouts are "booked solid" for "hurricane haulouts" by Feb or shortly thereafter. So make your plans early. Some yards require a 2 or 3 month non-refundable "pre-payment/deposit" to hold a space for you. Even the supposedly "in-water" hurricane holes fill up "instantly" should there be a threat imminent. So be sure to have all your extra anchors, chain, lots of line and chafe gear onboard and ready to use.
