Another boat!!

I use a garden cart for transport. It works quite well, especially when removing my ships form the pond. There is always another way to skin a cat. Just don't tell the cat that!

This reminds me of something that happened forty or something years ago when I was building my 43 foot sharpie schooner. A work colleague said he would bring me in a set of pram wheels so that I could make a trolley to 'wheel her to the water'.

When the winds before the rain, soon you may make sail again, but when the rain's before the wind, tops'l sheets and halyards mind

At 6 foot you may need to recruit sea hands to get her to the water .It looks a good build so far I look forewords to seeing more.
