I would look at the historical landfalls on the
east coast.
North Carolina gets hit A LOT, particularly along the
outer banks. Consider South Carolina which takes far less direct hits.
However, South Carolina and
Georgia are Low Country, with long stretches of low elevation. Storm surge creates a decent amount of flooding in these areas.
I'd look at where the line is for
insurance premiums. Virginia tends to be the cutoff, where further south and the premiums start to increase. (My
insurance company won't even write
marine policies for boats south of Virginia). It might be more cost effective to consider moving North.
You could also take the
boat to
New England and spend the summer there.
If you're going to leave the boat, I would have it hauled. If I were in North Carolina or south I would try to get the boat tied down while stored
on the hard.
