Sean, I have spent many a summer in Arizona and not to think that I am suffering from mental heat retardation; I plan to utilize the enclosed swamp cooled high bay area at work while the monsoons and electrical storms wreck havoc with the sailing weather. I have plans on a plywood-4x4-A-Frame sling (pair) that I might use to offload the boat and do the trailer and keel at the same time (sandblast-paint). Also, with the possibility of a forklift, it may (or may not) be easier. I suppose I could pick it up with the forklift and shake it until the centerboard fell out. Just kidding; but as calm and collected as you seem to be in light of all the problems, I'm not sure I would be so rational! Keep up the good work! BTW, the running dialogue and photos are a great tribute to your skill and perseverance. Obviously, many of the listers feel the same way! Steve M17 # 263 Glendale, AZ
