    Wow, this looks safe...

    That entire situation is bad, but look closely at how the bow is supported.

    looks like crap blocks too, not that the boat is heavy, but its heavy enough to at least result in you having to eat your lunch through a straw or having to pee and poop into a bag if you make it out alive

    the gunwales on those skiffs are just a few layers of glass, even with a light boat I would not trust laying under one

    I put my Wife's Honda Pilot up on the forks of two of our forklifts [6K# each] and worked underneath it for several hours. It was a Saturday and I did not have to worry about an OSHA inspection...

    Looks like he is a dumb ass for sure. WOW!! Ill bet if he started scrubbing under there she would get knocked over right away. Good rule of thumb. If you can push her over by hand shes not secure.

    What was he thinking - he could have hung it by the ss railings, tied up to his deck railing above and not had all the blocks in the way

    At least he can tunnel his way out thru the stones when it falls

    Little Billy-Has anyone seen dad? He said he would help me with my train layout.

    Big Sis Jane-Last I heard him telling mom he would be outside working on the boat.
    But that was hours ago and it's dark out now.
