Re: FS17- Extended sheer
Finally back at it. Managed to start grinding on Friday for about an hour. I looked under the boat and found the saw horses were damaged from when the cover collapsed. The back wall also collapsed from the heavy rain.
The boat may be flipped sooner than I wanted because the boats have to move for the masons to rebuild the wall.
Hope I can make some progress soon.

Re: FS17- Extended sheer
Found time today to reassess storm damage to the boat. The boat appears to have a further ripple in the bottom than before the storm and the shelter collapsing. The sawhorses are bent to one side so this may be part of the problem. All I can do at this point is move the boat and strong back to some blocks and re-level. Hope it works not sure what else I can do. Open to suggestions.
Will start sanding the glass for a start on that till I have to relocate the boat.

Re: FS17- Extended sheer
If the boat looks lopsided in any of the pictures please say so. I am trying to decide whether the what I perceive as storm damage up close is real. The boat was certainly shifted hard during the recent storms.

She looks pretty dang good. Pictures are deceiving so it's really up to you to determine if there is any twist. Take a string from the stern to frame b each way.
