I have a bass boat I just painted.. The problem is I did not read enough on this forum before I flipped it over. I flipped it with the top cap off, and knew right off the bat that it was a bad idea, but we proceeded to flip it since it was already half way over. Cracked the wood strip that runs around the edge in a lot of places.. Well anyway, the boat has now been painted, and I cant flip it as carelessly as I did the first time. Don't want to sacrafice all of my hard work. The only thing I can think of is rent two cherry picker hoists, strap on the bow eye, and transom, jack it up, then roll it while it is dangling int he air. I just do not want to spend the money on the cherry pickers. Does any one else have any ideas or a cheap to build frame that I can use to hoist it up. I have no rafters or anything to use where I am working on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The bottom hull weighs about 1100LBS if that helps.
