If its head on, I will pull. All I need is the bilge to go and she takes on too much water. Freaking T-top will be like a sail. I'll make the call thursday afternoon.

If you end up pulling it, you should just keep it on the trailer for the fall.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Bear in mind that coastal development was virtually non-existent in 1938.

Loss of life might not be as severe, but property damage could be staggering.

Lots of people with no clue of how powerful even a cat 2 storm can be, have built or have bought houses that will turn into driftwood. Don't forget--Bob hit here at low tide, and there was still a pretty big storm surge. My mom has pictures of what Taylor's Point, at the west end of the Canal behind the Maritime Academy, looked like after Carol in 1954--it ain't pretty.

We are way overdue for one of these things to hit us head-on, with 130 mph winds, at high tide.

if the track is correct, it should be rounding the cape and hitting the north shore at high tide
