Trucking Reliance (after mast removal)

Monday, October 30, 2006

Picking Reliance up and loading on the truck (after removing masts, loose deck gear, the stern davits, and the mast pulpits.



Mast steps, main is keel stepped, mizzen deck stepped.













Picking up and loading. (also installing last two windows after final fiberglass work on the cabin top)







The truck had mast bunks, essentially brackets which can be mounted on the jack stand uprights, which is the easiest and most secure method to transport a main mast. The mizzen was secured on deck. All the shrouds and halyards were left on the mast but well wrapped in place with other smaller lines.









Properly blocked on the trailer, strapped down, masts secured, and ready to go down the road.













Heading down the road towards Oregon.
