i'm impressed.
we haul about 75 boats in 2 months! tide is an issue. boat is still in the H20 but i've mostly called it quits for the year. i may try to get out on one more day....we'll see always next season to look forward to................. gf.

We pull right at the yacht club with a crane...Torr4esen's Marine comes over with a crane, 3 high-lo's and 2 trailer/tractor combos and it's like a giant chain reaction....everyone is divided into teams...we were on the cradle team....had to locate the cradle up next in the queue and point it out to the hi=lo guy who then loaded it into a waiting trailer...then the crew positions and the trailer takes off for the staging area to be loaded with a boat...then there's a crew on the wall where they lift out and a crew on the adjacent dock...you back up into the area with your boat and throw lines off 4 corners...the crane drops the slings down and they position the slings and voila! up and out and onto the trailer....then they take you to your parking place and the power washer crew comes and blasts all the grunge and mussels off the bottom...the rule is that if you don't work, they don't pull your boat.
