A "Flippin' Pizza Party"

With the help of dear friends and neighbors the boat is upside-down now and ready for 'glassing the hull, installing the centerboard, mucho sanding, and painting, along with a few other chores. Here's how we did it:

Trying to get organized!

The rollover begins . . .

and continues . . .

halfway there!

A couple sawhorses hold the boat in place
while we decide what to do next.

I guess we figured it out and she's on her way down . . .

a little farther (further?) . . .

almost there . . .

and she's down!

Next step is to move the boat to the center of the garage.

And that's it--time to party!

Most everybody stayed for pizza, beer, and soft drinks afterwards--pretty sure everyone had a good time. OK, maybe folks don't look too happy in these pics, but that's the photographer's (my) fault.  :-) Thanks to Thea Pratt for shooting the flipping pictures, and to Rose Van Orden for bringing a wonderful Greek salad.
