Creator's Key Takeaways

Hurricanes are a way of life on the U.S. gulf coast and east coast.

Museum ships in the coastal areas have to be prepared in the event of an approaching storm.

The west side of the storm is always the weaker side of the storm as it rotates.

We have a generator on Alabama that will power the ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Museum ships should have a generator for power during storms.

✓Ships should be lashed down but not too hard to avoid damage from hydraulic pressure.

✓Aircraft should be elevated on blocks to reduce storm surge risk.

Ships breaking loose during storms — Extra mooring lines and lashing down are essential, but some damage may still occur due to acts of God.
