Wouldn't you know it...
I spent the entire day taking the trailer out from under the Halman in
order to do a complete trailer refurb - man that was a job and a half. I haven't worked that hard in freakin' years. So, wouldn't you know it, but I had two emails on it tonight and one is coming to see it tomorrow, the other Wendsday. Watch me sell it and the buyer wants it by Thursday. Heh - he/she will just have to wait on that one. It will take me two weeks to recover. :) By the way, interesting side effect of removing the boat from the trailer - it looks like a completely different boat - very stylish with a certain "attitude" - only way I can explain it. |

How does one take a trailer out from under a sailboat without using a lift with belts under the boat? |

How does one take a trailer out from under a sailboat without using a lift with belts under the boat? Very carefully. Jacks, stands and a lot of tugging and pulling. |

I would've stopped by to help, if you would've rewrapped my 6000 yr old surf casting rod and gotten it back to me by early Octember. |

I'd be glad to do it for you if you can get it here. Take about a month - I'd do it inbetween other projects. |

I wrapped it a few years ago, but it's a travesty. Really ugly. |

Holy smokes...I just found my old Horrocks Ibbotson meat pole, given to me by a friend of my dad's who was convinced I was going to run into some tuna in Peconic Bay. :-) |
