Some more back-log to catch up on

We finally sold the the giant hydraulic long line hauler that was forward of the main hatch. The guy who bought it and I had to take it apart as much as we could just to have a chance of getting it off the boat. Then it completely maxed out the little Toyota truck, but it was gone and it gave us some cash for the big swap meet in Seattle.
You can see the remnants of the cement base they poured to create a level surface for the hauler to mount too.

May be hard to tell, but with all the stuff taken out of the bow, the water line came up over a foot.

Here's the current view looking forward from the engine room hatch.

A different view of the block and tackle setup.

The first load of new wood to go back on the boat! 

The second load of wood. Some beautiful slabs cut from a 300 year old Douglas fir. They're about 30" wide and 14' long and weigh at least a couple hundred pounds each.
