Jailbreak Last two weeks was intensive.  I have bonded with transporter half year ago, and planned THE DAY 11/11 but everything went not as planned. We have successfully completed transportation one day later ;) But using other trailer than we planned, hauled out boat with help of other people, and puling trailer with other car than planned. But we did it!  Distance we traveled was about 220miles.  All went relatively good, only one problem happened, One of tires on the trailer blown on the middle of the road. But we did not have jack and tire wrench, so i had to ride to closest city on my car to buy them to replace the tire.   I agreed with my transporter to meet at matina about 6:30 AM to motor to Austin yacht club where we plan to pull boat from the water.   Early morning in Austin, on the way to marina. Way out to freedom she will sail last time from Commanders point marina.   All ready for departure, just disconnect shore power and we are free to go. G...

Just added wooden horses support to mast during transportation. Little motoring to lake and back.  

Mast, Step-down, step3.   Whole day was little cursed.   My friend Engine and me agreed to meet at 7AM but he had to do detour before come to marine, so he came at about 9pm. two hours on nice chill weather was lost. then we figured out i forgot climbing gear box. and I had to ride home and back, so we lost one more hour. Later I regret about these gold hours...  we had 26C that day, but full strength Texas sum. I think at least three times i was under edge of heat stroke. Later we have "dropped" mast from about 2 " (inches) to front and back reeling because rope used in lifting pulley system just ended when I peyed it to lower the mast. I was too concentrated to how and where to land mast and forget to control end of the rope. Next issue, when we lowered down "A" frame we put too much side load on one of legs and 2x4 snapped, but no injury or damage happened, just fast uncontrollable descend ;-).      Furler down.  First of all before starting...
