To move your residence out of the possible path of what may, or may not, become a hurricane in a couple of weeks requires planning, provisioning, and the ability to take several weeks off at a moment's notice. For the truly wealthy, they either let insurance cover any damage, or have the hired captain and crew move it, but only if the owner tells them when and where to go.
Moving the boat to a safe place is not a luxury most boat owners have, practically speaking.

I agree the family boat is 52 feet in Boston harbor it’s not possible to get a boat out on short notice and most of the time you can ride it out at the dock
