What to do with my boat?

I'm in the Sweeny area and not sure what to do with my boat. I'm not planning on leaving, work won't let me until 8 hours prior to land fall and that will be too late anyway in my opinion. Anyway, I have an 18 foot Marshall Flats boat and am thinking of putting it in the middle of my yard where there are not trees that can possible get it and pull the plug on it. My uncle is chaining his to a tree. What do you guys do? Thanks
