Dont flame me for posting a pic of a monoslug, just thought it was a cool picture from our J-24 Easter Regatta. We didnt realize until we lifted the first boat that we were going to have to go over that tall oak!

Our lake is down 15 ft, the ramps are useless, and the crane had to be set-up in a certain area. When we lifted the 1st boat, it became clear the boom on the crane would not be able to raise high enough to go in front of the tree and right over the ramp, so we had to go over the trees.
47 boats in and out, no scares or incidences, took 7 hrs to put them in, 5 hrs to take them out.

not that it would probably make a difference dropping a J24 from 10 feet or 100 feet - but that sure would make me nervous if I were the owner!

Isn't anybody worried about the oak tree?
