Sounds innocent enough right.....?
Turns out that the 'boat' is about 25 feet long and was built in 1906 when they used cast iron instead of wood.
Damn that is one heavy lump o timber
Stiffy decided to use the hoist to lift the boat on its side then tip it over
What could possibly go wrong
here the boat is on its side and Stiffy and Graham are about to let it down
but first peter decides to re-wire the safety light
against the odds the boat makes it onto the trolley and can be rolled about
some sections are showing their age...(unlike the rest of us)
I have vague recollection from my childhood where my father wouldn't let me near the paint he was putting on the bottom of his timber boat - he called it 'Red Lead'

this activity was promptly abandoned...
Stiffy put on beer and and a barbie
Unfortunately I had to go pick up my son on what was shaping up to be a top afternoon
