I think the picture above sums it up pretty well...................what the hell happened to the boat!
Actually, this was a staged photo.....all is well and we are where we expected to be at this point.
There's not much left is sort of an understatement, but trust me..................we will use EVERY piece and component we can that can be salvaged. As you can see, the non-trips have been completely removed now on both sides. One side of the frames (or ribs as I like to call them, as I'm an airplane wing structures guy) has been taken out, and the remaining ones will come out tonight I'm sure.
We are getting close to wrapping up the deconstruction phase, all we can do now is move forward and put "Humpty Dumpty" back together again.
I mentioned last week about the restoration crew display sponson I saved, right? Well, were up to 20 signatures so far................and more will be added as we go along. If you look closer, you will see that Chip Hanauer himself even signed it................how cool is that!
Anyhow, enjoy the pictures and the videos below...............were getting closer every day. We'll be turning the corner here very soon I'm sure.
