Flipping a Hull
I tried a search for flipping a hull, but can't seem to find anything.
I have a 22 Mako that I'm working on. There's no engine, console, or rigging in the boat. There is some fiberglass work I'd like to do on the bottom, and some have suggested that it may be easier if the hull were rolled over.
I have thought about using a forklift connected to one of the lifting eyes on the transom. I would think that if the lift was picked up slowly, the bow could be used as a 'pivot point, and the boat would roll over on its own. With no anchor pulpit or bow rail, it may work....
