[Rhodes22-list] Blocked for painting

Slim,

Thanks for the photos.  They look great.  

It does not look like you are blocking under the keel.  Is this correct?

> with the trailer jacks, then I blocked up the hull and cranked the 
> jacks back into their "short" position.  Then I put blocks under the 
> wheels of the rear jacks and then jacked up again, then added more 
> blocks under the hull.  As you can see, I put two points under the 
> stern and one in the bow.  For the blocks under the bow, I pulled the 
> trailer tongue extension out a bit so it would be out of the way.  
> Sorry I didn't take the pictures with the tires off the trailer, but I 
> really had a lot of room to work.  Of course, when I was done, I 
> lowered the boat back down on the trailer and then painted the spots 
> where the blocks were.
> Hope this helps,
