Getting Jesse Off to San Diego

At Jacksonville we made a sharp left hand turn and headed west.


Back to Pensacola where Jesse was making preparations for
his big trip to San Diego.

First, the boat had to be readied for transport
which seemed to involve a lot of duct tape and foam.
 

Then it was taken from the water - something I had never seen before.
From left to right, top to bottom:
The lifter is in place.
Here comes the boat.
The boat is situated on two straps that will cradle it as it is lifted
from the water and moved.
The boat is lifted from the water.
It is moved to its place.
And there it sat until the truck arrived.
I wasn't present for that but Jesse assures me it made it to San Diego just fine.


 

Then, it was time to load up the Ranger and the trailer.


 

And off he went.
