Depending on how much water you could get in the basement and how tall
you are, you could build a platform, say 3' off the floor and put the
tools on that. If you're under 6' tall, you could put the heavy
equipment on that, use the area under it for wood storage. That would
protect the equipment from some flooding. I would be sure that the
flood insurance would cover a complete loss though.
