I watched Jeff
dock Spirit in TCI earlier this year. It was blowing really hard. He never
touched a pylon.

I just received a note from Jeff on his
Amel 54.
He left the South west coast of Puerto
Rico before Maria and headed south. He encountered winds to 40 knots and
seas 8-12 feet.
He returned to the marina and he was the
only boat floating,. The buoys to the entrance were gone
Some boats floating and many piled up on
the beach. He entered and tied up to the gas dock in 20 knots.
He did this all single handed.30 hours
total time solo.
