Post GatorGlide boat FLIPPER
This old timer (engineer) said he was going to devise a way to turn his boat over to put the GG on. Said it worked perfectly and snail mailed me pics of his flipper, as he called it. Thought it was pretty cool.

Only need a single point in the front that allows it to twist over. Once it's flipped you can set it on a barrel, saw horse, etc.

If you do a lot of them you can use an engine stand. I have seen some home made car rotisseries made using two engine stands.

It doesn't get better than ingenuity. ppl really don't use it anymore most expect it to be handed to them or pay someone to do it for them. I could see a lift system to take it off the trailer being very helpful too.

I just did mine with an engine lift on the front and 4 guys. It was a bit squirrely but it worked.
