Got the hull flipped yesterday. Scared the hell outta me. I couldn't bring myself to pull it all the way over. While fretting, it went over on it's own. Missed the little loader bucket by 6". Pulled it up on the trailer, and back in the barn it went for finishing.

Holy Smoly - that's a lot of boat!!! Looks real nice - though you get penalties for working too neat and having too many toys - loader bucket for example. Looking foward to further updates.

Dave, the loader was a rental. $89/day. It was one bad-azz little machine. When I was done with the boat, I went loking for things to pick up & move around.

Tim, it is a flats/bay skiff. I fish shallow water flats for redfish. Will be 20' loa.

I keep telling the wife that I need a bobcat, but she just will not listen. :rolleyes:

Nice job Casey.
