capt jake Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I got invited to help one of the local Blue Jacket 24 builders (there are two in the area) roll over his boat. Though it took almost two hours to get there, it was a very enjoyable time! It went rather quickly as there were 6-8 people there. I am hoping he will invite me back for the next rollover and maybe even the launch! Here are a few pictures I was able to take. When he said "Ready?" It went real fast, so the pictures reflect that.

Greg Luckett Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I was hoping you would take some pics and let us know how the roll over went. Thanks! Quote
Stump Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Very nice! How large is the working area? Did you use the brute force method of roll over or did you somehow do it in the air? err....flipped it I mean :oops: Quote
capt jake Posted February 1, 2006 Author Posted February 1, 2006 Pretty large shop. Rollover was completed inside. Brute force, dude! :shock: Quote
Frank Hagan Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Hey Jake, any of those BJ24 builders want to chronicle their progress here on messing-about? I could set up a few pages for them to log in using their browser and post progress notes (if they are the journal-keeping type) or set up a gallery for them. I have the plans for hull #3 you know, but haven't been able to even get near the shop for quite a while. Quote
capt jake Posted February 1, 2006 Author Posted February 1, 2006 I'll send them both a copy of this last post. I think that would be an outstanding idea! Quote
