Building the Alpha 2 by Robert Sanson - 3

Flipped the boat within the slings.

I made the mistake of fitting the seats while the boat was still suspended in the slings. When I removed the slings and lowered the boat onto the trailer, the sides of the boat relaxed and my seats didn't fit anymore! I had to remake the seats. Lesson learned!


This is the only good shot of the wooden trailer that I made.
