lifting rings are for vertical loads only

The Cadillac was hitched up to the Hydrodyne trailer

I like the fern placement. Also a nice place to hang lights or maybe strings of beer cans for privacy....

👍

Practice makes perfect. Someday it will only take 1

Have been slowly working on the exterior of the house, and beginning stages of removing my 2 post lift.


After the new siding my wife asked me to hang ferns for her birthday. Turns out wasn't where she had in mind.


Quinner's neighbor offered up this beauty to me last year. I went and bought a set of tires and dragged it out from under some trees. Pretty nasty, but was fairly complete. I now have a 60 hp front porch.




Sorry Fossett, the Sweet Dream will remain just that, a dream, even after I installed, then uninstalled, a ladder I went and bought another SW partly for.


Pretty good fit. Fully slicked down the bunks with an entire can of silicone spray. Planning on climbing the landfill and making the donation back to mother earth Thursday morning. Was a very quick, 2 beer job!

Todd,

Perfecter! (HW will get this)

For the record, with heavy side load stress on the lifting rings, did you notice any damage to the supporting fiberglass?

Tmosely1, I found the blue SN on craigslist last fall. Last summer I found a SW18 with no engine on a nice trailer and with the help of CCF members was able to get it from Kentucky. I intended to part this boat out and keep only the trailer only but it seemed too complete and fairly clean to destroy. So I bought the blue SN in Oklahoma for the engine. For about a week I considered putting the SN all back together but then realized I don't need two ratty 2001s so I started selling off those parts as intended. It was fairly complete, just completely disassembled.. We took about 2 hours loading everything into the boat, including the engine. Unfortunately the engine barely rolls over by hand so it will be a longer project than I was looking for. Along came the SW20 shown above in Michigan that I bought mostly for the engine.

Long story short, a new trailer turned into the two parts boats. I still have plenty of stuff from both of them. I'm hoping to find some time this winter to sort and sell what I don't want to keep.

I'm not doubting you! The illustration is more for making sure that anyone else using the technique is aware of what happens with slings and or cables when they aren't in the vertical position.

Yes Pete I am sure of that. What are you doubting?

Are you sure of that?

Again, you gotta call me when you are doing these projects. I want to come just to run video!
