McGuiver goes boat building!!!!

Sunday 16th december 07

Today, I went mad..... In my wisdom I decided FR 14 was going in whether it liked it or now.
No crane, nobody else but the boys. so the gentle art of "McGuiver" came into play.


Step 1. Load heavy Frame onto truck tail lift.



Angle it upwards and drag it onto the scaffold tower


Roll tower to bow and shove it onto the tops of the hull.

Now, this piece has to be fitted by dropping it straight down onto the centre piece to support it.


Build the above contraption form whatever is to hand. and attach a 250kg wire winch to make a crane (we use these for lifting lighting gear. )


Add a 5yr old boy to press the buttons.. explaining the dangers and how much is "a little bit" ....


Voilla... Dara does a great job.



Fitted like a glove.
