Yep, lift and shift. This is a term I learned this week, from one of the lads masterminding the lifting and shifting of the brand new boat in picture. The whole process took about three working days… and then there was all the background planning and logistics. Some operation… and all culminating in the safe lowering of the boat into the water.
At one point a title for the post crossed my mind…
Delicate operation – 13o ton boat lift!
That it was, I promise! Delicate and specialist!
Welcome and thanks for stopping by… I hope you find something to enjoy.
I occasionally rant and whinge but mostly have fun doing my posts… please have a look and feel free to comment and maybe even return for another dose some day!
These days, I’m promoting The Lucky Thirteen, my first Kindle publishing! Please see immediately below! Now added… True Stories and Other Lies… look!
God Bless!

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.

Sulke werkery met hyskrane en masjienerie fassineer my altyd…dis seker omdat my pa ‘n ingenieur was. Pragtige boot en foto, AJ….beslis nie ‘n ysbreker nie, want dis mos aardverhitting daar by julle.😉😉

Ek is ook besot op sulke soort gebeurtinisse… wil alles sien en probeer verstaan. Die ou vat my vertel het van die “lift and shift” se naam is Brian Aylward. Hulle maatskapy werk die hele land vol. Ek het sy pa ook ontmoet, wat die besigheid in 2981 gestig het. Kyk hulle webblaai… baie interesant, en sulke friendelike mense… vier broers en een suster bryf nou die besigheid!
