Milton Mac 26 tie down techniques?

[Herschel]

Yes, let me add my congrats on a good job securing your boat. Mine did well at its slip in the marina in Sanford. I did take my boom and mainsail below and secured the Bimini in the down position, of course. Kept the ballast tank full. Mooring lines doubled up. I think she took 85 mph gusts on the bow from NE and northerly winds. Had some water in the bilge, but not much. Cleat hitches were very tight afterwards, but not much chafe on the lines. Looks like the St. Johns has peaked in the Sanford area. All's well that ends well.
