Turning the Hull
The hull was much heavier than I had anticipated. I used the Gleda method for turning the hull. Overall, it went smoothly and it took 5 people to rotate it into the stands.
Did I mention that we dropped the hull? Nothing to be concerned about; the hull is amazingly strong. I do have a small repair to make to the stern post which was over leveraged and split. I will show the repair later just in case anyone else splits a stem or stern post during turning. Of course, I could the the first to have ever done this, and the last!
