True! I'm already pushing my luck: Last summer, I lured a couple of friends in with the promise of 4 days of Lake Huron sail-camping on my M17. However, before we could leave we had to reinstall all of the woodwork, re-bed ports, re-rig the mast, install a VHF, rewire the trailer lights . . . the list goes on. We ended up spending only two days on Lake Huron. As much as I sound like the jerk for foisting boat work on my friends, I actually honestly thought I would be done with everything in time for the (tightly scheduled) trip. I learned a valuable lesson: Take your best estimate of the time needed to do any given project and double it! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Pavuk" <mcpavuk@worldnet.att.net> To: <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 10:20 PM Subject: Re: M_Boats: boat cradle How about 4 strong friends? :) of course, they may not stay friends long if you asked this too often.

As a follow-up, I'd be very curious to know: Once one has built the
cradle,
how would one with no lifting tackle transfer the boat from the trailer to the cradle?

I am wondering if anyone has ever built a boat cradle for an M-15 to do work on the hull and , if so, what the specs were on it. I need to do bottom paint and would rather not have to pay a marina to lift it.
