We pulled into Harbor Beach marina an hour before that storm came through. We almost pulled the dock off the end piling but the 5/8 lines were never an issue. I do use a 3/4" stern and spring line at the home dock.View attachment 103480
You should be fine with that size. The most important lines are on the midship cleats. If you add a 4 way tie on top of that the boat will not move. I was on my boat during a supercell event that destroyed thousands of trees on our lake years ago. I watch the whole event develop on my nexrad and Raymarine radar. Winds touched 100MPH in our slip and shredded the flag on our flag pole. We lost many trees but the boat was fine. It never moved enough to touch a spring piling.
