Notes | Unless a boat is at sea, if there is a nearshore earthquake triggering a tsunami, there is no time for the owner to get the boat to safer waters. If the earthquake is distant, however, there will be a minimum of about 4 hours to move the boat offshore. This publication offers a thorough discussion of issues boat owners face, and what they should do. Colored maps, colored pictures. |
