Re: Lee's Monaco utility build
Everything looks great Lee..... I'm sure the flip will be a "non event". Your "roll cage" looks like it was designed by an engineer !! Best of luck today.
Re: Lee's Monaco utility build
Thank you everyone, I really appreciate it
and Neel, it's possible because there is an engineer in the house
I will post pictures and video.

Re: Lee's Monaco utility build
The boat is right side up! The flip went off without a hitch
We had to slide it in the garage before the flip and then once it was sideways (i.e. half way over), we had to slide it a few feet so there was enough room to roll it the rest of the way. It was a little scary
but the roll cage help up well...whew!
Here are some pictures. I also posted a video on my youtube channel (search for "Boat Builder Lee" on youtube and look at the Glen-L Monaco build playlist). Here is a direct link to the flip video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rt1gVzR ... A&index=60

Re: Lee's Monaco utility build
Way to go Lee.... That is without a doubt the best video I have seen showing the right way to flip a boat. 20% down, 80 to go...
Re: Lee's Monaco utility build
Congrats. Got pics of the beer & burgers party??

Re: Lee's Monaco utility build
Thank you everyone.
Steve, It was a little intense but having a big group helped for sure.
Neel, I hope I am more than 20% of the way
Ken, We didn't have that but my wife did make cookies
Roberta, I find myself staring at it and saying "now what?". I guess I will figure it out soon
Bill, That is true. It is surprising how fast it actually goes.
By the way, after I removed the roll cage, I did get in it an make motor noises
