setting sail for your holiday today. What should you do?
Head out as planned, but under engine power instead of raising the sails.
Do not go out on your boat. These wind speeds are unsafe.
Make sure to have a backup radio so you can monitor the progression of the
storm.
Do a thorough check of your boat before setting sail.

Great job!
