[Alberg30] Careening an A30

I'd call it drying out on a grid but I would do it with the boat hard
against the verticals on the starboard side with appropriate fendors. With
the boat 3 - 4 ft from the support there is a real danger of it tipping if
someone climbs on board, in a stiff wind or if there is any wave action when
the tide rises.
