pics look great, even for a cell phone camera. i don't want to be a spoiler, but, i was wondering how compact and secure the ground is underneath the support jacks.

the ground is compact and secure. I have kept my 27 carver on it. know the Carver weighs less but the stands never sunk into the ground.
All of the stands and the blocks are on 30"x30"x 3/4" plywood pads to spread the load out more.

thanks tom. appreciate the response. i was curious and it got the best of me.
cannot wait to see some of the pics documenting your restoration of your lady trojan. pee green w/ envy buddy having your boat in your side yard. i'd love to have my tri at the house. the neighbors would have an aneurysm. well one would, the other would love it.

I I didnt piss off my neighbor last year, this is nothing!
Last winter I had 4 boats there, my 27 Carver, my 22 Pursuit, a buddy's 27 IMP, and my Caribe RIB.
everyone teased about it being called the boat yard.
I live on a dead end street, only 3 houses, woods beside me, main road and industrial park 200 feet behind me (through the trees.)
My neighbor beside me, we have a 15' buffer of thick pine, and my neighbor across the street has told me in the past, I cant surprise or offend him, he has 5 kids!
Anyway, I must get a new camera for the progress. I will be slow until I sell my Carver.

Mine is sitting beside my barn but I find it aggravating, always reminding me of my Sloth in not getting my rear in gear and finishing.

Geez Larry, what are you waiting for? A personal invitation from the yacht club to bring that thing over there?
Nice F boat OP. I like the blue bottom with the black stripe. Some day I'll get mine back that way.
