T&T: A nagging question

My insurance company, Markel via Al Golden and IMIS offers "named storm" 
coverage as an option. I dropped mine this year, saving about $1400 or so. I 
decided that I was confident in my marina, and my ability to prepare for a 
storm. My boat survived without so much as a scratch or leak, so I'm 
thinking it was a good decision, especially after seeing so many other boats 
destroyed around here. That doesn't mean that a cat 4 wouldn't have torn it 
up, but that's the risk I've assumed.
