Aloha from Hanalei Bay, Kauai. I am in the process of making a hurricane plan for AVALON, one of your beautiful, well thought out and seaworthy Sundeer 60s. She is now happily living in Nawiliwili, Kauai.<\/p>\n
I think that in the event of a hurricane I will anchor her in the harbor rather than leave her at the dock. I am considering a 50 lb Danforth style anchor on about 20 feet of chain shackled to the 120 lb Bruce on the 5\/16 schedule 70 300 ft anchor cable. I also plan to put a 30 lb kellet on the chain rode. Thoughts? Aloha, Scott<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hi Scott: Hard to comment on a hurricane system. What we do know is a Sundeer 64, with 80kg Bruce and 3\/8 sched 7 chain, survived at anchor in Grenada couple of years ago. Steve <\/p>\n
