Got the boat flipped today and built a moving dolly so I move the boat around easily. Also before I flipped it went up and reinforced the rafters in the attic so I can rotate the boat 360 degrees for spraying Two things I learned from last job spraying on a trailer is a challenge also when I need to spray the inside bow area i won’t have to be inside now

Cool. Did you already do the core?

It’s been too long for me had other commitments come into play should of been done long ago but now at this stage the rigging is my favorite part A special Thank Zulu to my son in law Chris Renggli and Ron Pratt without them I would still be on this project

Its a ton of work and it’s very satisfying to accomplish. The rigging is icing on the cake, enjoy the process
