Boats are tied up and anchored or brought out of the water. You make sure you have enough fresh water for everyone for 4 days (a gallon a person a day). Also fill the tubs up with water as you can use this for toilets if your public (or well) water supply is cut off. Get food that won't have to be refridgerated and hold on
I didn't realize you were fro Fl! What part? I'm one of the few natives.
