Storm and a V20

[phatdaddy]

lay it on 3 or 4 old tires and put about a foot of water in it

I decided to load the V20 back onto its trailer for now. The 18 Fisherman is on the ground now, and I am about to flip it over onto the gunnels, its a mosquito harbor. STINK!!!!!! I need you and your buddies!

About to start loading the V20 here in a few minutes. I really decided to load it back up so i can move it to the other side of the yard away from trees. Right now its under an oak tree, that I am not too sure of.

I think I can use my electric winch to flip the 18 almost vertical, then borrow my neighbors redneck cherry picker to lower it down on the gunnels. Nobody has been interested in buying it, maybe now that its off the trailer and on the gunnels somebody will buy it. Usually thats how my luck works.

Now the storm will miss you by a hundred miles.. Your fully prepared. Looks like a rainfall event for central FL. My keys friends are scrambling right now. Hope all fair well.

Got the V20 on the other side of the yard, about to try flipping the 18.

Ridge I would rather be safe than sorry, not knowing what this storm is doing and where it wants to go. Just looked at the forecast and it looks like they have it pinned on Mississippi. That puts Alabama and Florida on the East side of it.... great.

On a side note. A V20 seems fairly light without a motor. I was winching it on the trailer, had the transom on blocks. Had the truck idling in reverse trying not to drag it off the transom blocks, then noticed the transom floating an inch above the blocks. This with about half the boat on the trailer.

Flipping the 18 is a no go. The way the dumbass previous owner cut the cap its acting like three separate structures rather than one. No matter which way i pull or lift it just twists. So she is sitting on the ground now. Anybody want an 18 Fisherman?

It'd be ok jason.
Just let it fill up with rain water and worry about it later.
