Boy...I'm getting lots of needed practice wrasslin' my boat trailer around this week.
Twice out & back for delivery/removal of 30 cu yd and a 14 cu yd dumpsters...and today it's to allow delivery of the materials for my 6' x 12' shed. Street is very narrow with cars all around. To add to problem, the driveway opposite me doesn't line up with mine.
What a difference two feet makes. Ranger Supercab & longer tow bar vs old short wheelbase minivan accounts for difference.
On the bright side, my trailer frame has been manufactured in Ottawa and the local guy will pickup this weekend. He'll bring to halifax for hot dipped galvanizing...then take to his shop for assembly. Hope to have it before end of month.

That's a really nice looking boat Don. Yesterday when I arrived back in Halifax our final approach took us over ( what I think was) Porter's Lake.

How is the wrok coming on the garage?

Garage was a little worse than we thought. Tore it down section by section with my recipicating saw and threw sections into the dumpsters. Today we built a 12' x 6' shed. Tomorrow it's roof shingles, install steel 6 panel door and then vinyl siding. Two fixed windows ordered.
