    Okay Storm is coming in my face if I'm heading back to dock. Do i try to stay on that course or turn around and go with the waves and ride it out?

    Do NOT turn and run with the waves/wind....good chance of getting swamped by waves coming over the back of the boat. Nose on or 45 degree angle INTO the waves and just go slow/make way until you get out of the wind-front....should you lose power have a sea anchor ready (5 gallon bucket works in a pinch) tied to the BOW of the boat, not the STERN or side...ride it out and have your radio ready if necessary
