BLOCKING THE BOAT ASHORE
Prepare for each hull:
- A large rectangular wooden block of 1m in length and a tire to be
placed under the stern, across the keel.
- A steel jackstand of a minimum of 1m in height which will be placed
under the forward part of the forward bulkhead.
Make sure that the aft part of the keel is well-chocked (on its block)
before very carefully lowering the forward section onto the jackstand.

vinegar (do not use a chlorine based product).

them to the boat, placing them upright on one side to limit contact
