re: Storm protection for coastal camps, recommendations and ideas!

I just rebuilt mine and I did the following:
Extra strapping around windows/doors
Closed cell insulation throughout
1/2 plywood on perimeter interior walls
Double pane windows
The only thing I have protecting my door is a storm door which held up thru Ida
Next plans are to strengthen my pilings (no cross members so it sways ) and eventually put hardi plank or something similar instead of vinyl siding.
My deck railings are 2x4s that are 3” apart vertically. dont know if that made a difference interfering the wind but I only lost a portion where something from another camp hit it.
