Title: Boat moving
Post by: fireman24mn on October 16, 2013, 09:00:10 AM
I was wondering if anyone would be available to help me move the boat from one garage to the other. I have a couple projects that I have to get in the shop and get done before i can paint the 23. I am thinking Sat at around 5 or Sunday anytime. Me and the Family are going to WI dells and wont be home until later on Sat. I think we would need at least 6 people. But would be better to have a few more. Let me know who would be available to help and what day would work best.

Thanks!

I was just wondering the same thing too....

Post by: fireman24mn on May 05, 2014, 10:26:34 AM
I have made the executive decision and am bringing the 23 back into the garage and getting it done before all other projects. Anyone that is available on Sat May 10 come on over and we can get her moved back in the garage so I can get going on it. Plan is to have it done in June.

Plan is to paint the bottom and then I will need everyone back in about a week to carefully flip it back over and set the top half on. If you can only come help one week I would prefer the 2nd week for flipping it back over, the more people we have the easier it should be.

We could meet for breakfast at the diner down the street from my house again if we want before we move it over

Let me Know who can make it out. Thanks in advance.

I was wondering who would be available this weekend to help flip the boat. What day would work best for everyone? Sat or Sun? 10-15 people would be best I have a few friends that are coming but the more people the better.

Thanks

I am thinking that I will have to flip the boat another weekend when there are more people available.

Would anyone be available next weekend or next Monday. I know it is a holiday weekend but just in case there are people around I thought I would ask.

Thanks

I could probably make next saturday or sunday work as well as most weeknights after 4.

I was trying to think of some creative way to flip this thing. Like with a couple engine hoists or literally roll it with some kind of giant set of wheels......
Title: Re: Boat moving
Post by: fireman24mn on May 16, 2014, 12:15:49 PM
I am open to anyday weekend or weekday. I have prob 4-6 other guys that can help but like I said I think that it would be beast to have 10-15.

Jason I have been thinking about it as well.  Best I can think of is to roll it on to some inner-tubes or inflatables. I figured if I go buy a dozen of the cheap lounging mats that you blow up to lay on in the water then lay them out and we flip it onto them. Or I was thinking a couple of air mattresses would work as well.

I am open to Ideas and days. The sooner the better for me so I can get going on the top Half. Heck Even if we carry the bottom outside and carry the top in I could get started on the top and worry about flipping it over another day.

Title: Re: Boat moving
Post by: Jason on May 18, 2014, 10:31:53 AM
If have to be out of there by six.
Title: Re: Boat moving
Post by: fireman24mn on May 18, 2014, 10:44:36 AM
I have 9 confirmed so far for 6pm And another 3 maybe's

If you would need to leave before 6 Jason that's fine. Maybe you could help just carry it out of the garage. We only need 8 or so to do that.

Again it would be best if we had 12-15. So let me know if anyone else can make it. Pizza/ beer/ pop will be here at about 6:30 if that works for everyone.

Thank you again everyone.

I can not make it tonight but any other night/afternoon would work.
Air mattresses would be a good way and cheaper then inner tubes?

With all the Rain we are getting today I was wondering who would be available tomorrow instead. Just thinking that it will be pretty wet and muddy. Let me know thoughts? If everyone is ok with the rain then I am fine with it.

Just looked at the weather again and it looks like the rain should be over by the time we flip it at 6. Ground will be wet but we should be fine.
