Trailer scavenging


I finally found a good frame to act as the base for the HP-14 trailer. I now have a tandem axle 20 foot boat trailer sitting in the yard......beside the 1-23 trailer, and behind a 13-ft Boston Whaler I'm trying to sell...I'm sure the neighbors are jealous since I see them gathering in small groups and pointing at my yard quite often these last few days...

I also purchased 5 gallons of aviation-strength eco-friendly (so it says) paint stripper. Hopefully we'll get the ship unpacked out of the borrowed trailer and start work on it within the next few days, but the weather still sucks here (one soaring flight in all of June!) and the club is supposed to do some winch launches in Springfield, VT next week, so decanting the HP might take another week.....blah.
