Getting things moving

I went to the local Family Farm and Home and picked up four 5"x8' red pine fence posts to use as rollers for the boat. I needed to move it forward a bit to get it under the new boat shed. It worked like a charm. Here are a few pics.



Here's how far it was sticking out of the shed.



Placing the posts with a 4-ton floor jack.



All of the posts placed and the boat resting on them.



My trusty old Land Cruiser acting as the anchor. Using a tow strap and a come-along to move the boat.



Almost there.



Tucked inside.

In all only 5' or so of moving forward. It would have been easy to keep on going, though. The transition from asphalt to gravel drive did require some plywood bases to aid the rolling, but otherwise it was a cinch.

Now to get the cover on.
