swinging miss marie

[P.L.Lenihan]

Inspired by mmd, here is a wee bit of craziness at the boat yard where I am building my boat. This was a bad case of either loading the boat(60') too far forward on the trailer or using too light a loader. At any rate, on this day I was distracted by all sorts of hollering outside my boat-shed,took a peek outside and presto! loader and boat were doing the swing! The driver was new to the dance floor.

They finally figured out how to end the dance,re-balance the trailer load and give it a second go. The hollering stopped and I went back to work.

Right, Do you ever wonder what your boat goes through when you're not there?
