KDawg,
I have the title in hand and the 36 is off the trailer.
The wife is going to recarpet the four rear bunks tomorrow and we look forward to meeting you on Saturday.

The first thing you do in the morning is make sure it is still standing and the first thing as you drive home is look to see if it is still standing!
Actually those jacks will support 40,000 lbs combined and they lock into position and you can leave the boat there forever.
You can try to shake it and it does not move. I put the crate under the bow just because it looked so funny hanging out there. Just makes you feel better.
The wife was SOOOO nervous but now she is like WOW we did it. I heard her tell someone today the she made sure the insurance was paid up!

I have one of their outdrive jacks also and it is GREAT. Makes one man install of outdrives a breeze.
They weigh 300 lbs each before you put the arms on them. Total weight of the shipment was 1475 lbs.

It's bad enough crawling under a truck even using jack stands but working under that boat like that---I think I would make sure your insurance is paid up in addition to the boat insurance being paid up--sorry--that just looks "unnatural"

The pleasure was all ours. It was really nice to meet you also and I could not have asked for a better person to make a deal with like this. We are both looking forward to making the trip up next year and riding on the house boat. It sounds like a lot of fun for sure. Good luck with the trialering and if you have any questions please call me.
After we left you Saturday we had lunch with some friends in Knoxville then went to Gatlinburg and Cherokee and did not get back home till around 9PM. It was a very nice and relaxing day.
Take care
Mark
