Re: boat stands/jack
Do you have a solid place to put it in your back yard ? Or is it grassy ?
Your going to need blocks for your keel ( 3 places IMO ) .. then I would jackstand it. They might charge you more when your start the measure and cut thing for an hour.
Id start trolling arount the marinas or other places that use stands. They might have old rusty stands and jacks that they will never use because the yard guys let them go to rust ). You would need 4 stands ( possible 2 lows and 2 mediums. Start to spay them down with PB blaster or something again and again. You might have to replace some plywood or covering for the tops of beat up jacks.
We have a bin load of the Crap here that will not be used agian simply because they will never have time to refurbish.
I would think you could get em for 30-40 bucks a pop..then refurb.
Remember.. Those truck drivers wont be happy sitting around for hours waiting for you to get your lumber cut
. A happy driver is a conscience driver
.
Get your ducks together before they show up .. they will most likely help you if they see this.
YD.
