Yup sure can. I'd screw some 1x4's across the beam then strap her with some nylon straps. She'll be good to go for the flip

ok im gonna try pictures, po hull repair nice! my question is it looks like a hook in the hull....i raised the hull and supported it to glue in stringers. im guessing this needs to be repaired. i also put up my transom if it comes through

 

[Woodonglass]

Hmmmm, Lay a long straight edge on the bottom of the hull and Post a pic. Sure looks like it's warped to me from that pic!!! Transom looks pretty good from that pic.

Some hulls were engineered with a hook, to keep the nose down at planning speed, I think Checkmate was one of them.

Kinda Like my Golf Swing. It was created with a Built in Slice!!!! No matter how hard I try to repair it, it's still there!!!!:faint2::facepalm:

 

[jimmy wise]

both sides have it right over bunks. how do you know if it needs it. im assuming when i flip it ill need to glass it and fair it out

 

[jimmy wise]

i need to grind the stringers a bit. i didnt know you dipped roller in acetone so a few spots need touch up

 

[Woodonglass]

i didnt know you dipped roller in acetone so a few spots need touch up

Not sure I understand this statement???

 

[jimmy wise]

sorry, edges didnt lay down . few spots to grind and touch up. it take the straight edge photo in a bit

 

[jimmy wise]

how doyou find out if a hook was intentional

 

[jimmy wise]

wood, oops. well i cleaned my hull and notice a few areas were resin pooled had delamed so more cleaning and grinding . mostly were resin pooled . i have white areas. i did the glass work when it was over 90 out. live and learn. also the fuel tank had a piece of 1/4 ply under it glassed in. i put the tank in and i barely have room, height is not there. so my wood working buddy must have miss calculated the stringers by 3/8 or so. do i need to have ply under tank or just screws into the stringers. i guess ill have to add to top of stringers if nessesary

 

[Woodonglass]

Post up some pics so we can see what ya got!!

 

[jimmy wise]

you know im embarrassed, but i will so others can see. i said before my first 5 was finish resin i think. my buddy bought it for me off line so i didnt know. it pops off easy and is shiny. at least the moisture shows the spots . dummy i know better

thats all i have this one shows blisters in the tan, they stop about two foot from the rear and are not on the bottom

 

[Woodonglass]

Yup, you got some grindin to do. Not sure I see the problem with the tank though??

 

[jimmy wise]

they had plywood under the tank, if i glass up a piece of quarter ply the filler will be to high. ill get a quarter inch by grinding but i think the port stringer is low. im going to try to figure it out tomorrow. the stringers are covered with 1708. i got it real cheap in 10inch rolls so i did an inner and and outer. then i did the top and tabbed it. i kept adding more resin with a brush and roller it. i was told to dip the roller in acetone bucket it gots it to not pull up the cloth or mat. once i get it figured out i have to cut out for the filler hose.
