The big roll over "Margie/Lou"

I have been waiting for this day for a while now, but the paint had to dry and I had to clear the space in my shop and also I had to gather a few strong backs around to help me out. I got help from My son, Matthew and his friend Jason, also my son Devin and his friend Tony, as well as a couple of guys from the Wooden Boat Forum who live in the local area, so here are some pics from the day.

Here we are ready to drag her sideways and lower her off of the
building platform or strongback.

Rolling her over and hoping she doesn't get away from us.

That's my son, Matthew peeking around the corner.

Lay her down gently boys.

She looks considerably bigger from the top side.

Sliding her up unto the trailer she did not clear the sideboards so I had to remove them. They will be slightly modified and reinstalled though.

Sitting pretty on her trailer.

Tucked inside the shop with all the forms removed.
Now on to cleaning up the inside of the hull and fitting floors and frames.
Stay tuned.....
