The water in the boat was insurance that the boat would not be blown away by
the storm..
Yes, that is what I was wondering about--whether it would be a bad thing for
the water in the filter to drain into the pond.
If I drain it and keep the media moist can I just restart it after the
storm or willl I need to clean it out first?

OK, so what was he doing?
Regarding the pond, lid the filter & pond as you mentioned. Power goes
out,
let the bio-filter drain away, rather than to the pond if possible. Empty
moist bio-filter better than one full of water going anaerobic. ~ jan
