10 years ago we were building a stretcher to carry a damaged river yawl from her Mississippi home to our our Florida place. We made a special trip into Pensacola to twenty foot long 2x6 lumber, to provide a base for a stable platform.

Picking up lumber at Building Supply Center to build a BARBASHELA transport cradle. We will graft it to our Daysailer trailer, and the weight/ride will balance out nicely. The 2x6x20s and plywood will also be used to build the jig. They also have some great spruce and Douglas fir. George helped me select the lumber, nice to have a 40 year employee and 100 Ton Master interested in our project!
2x6 20 footers strapped to frame and screwed to bunks as well. Then plywood was screwed into the 2x6s and bunks. Overall length of the deck will be 20 feet.
The severely damaged skiff would not ride on a regular trailer, so we built it a stretcher.
Heading to Biloxi, MS soon!
