sion roberts / Winter Boat storage
Awhile ago I read about a yachtsman who had sadly lost his life in an accident. Was it a collision at sea, was he caught up in a severe storm and capsized, or was he wrecked on dangerous rocks? None of these – he was in fact crushed by his 29ft keelboat which fell on him while he worked on it on dry land at his local yacht club. It was out of the water for maintenance and a few minor repairs. This incident prompted me to consider the dangers of working on a boat when it is not in its natural environment but is supported by stands and blocks.
Whether you do it yourself or not, it is essential to know the proper way to block up a boat for storage or maintenance. Placing a boat on blocks can be dangerous to you and damaging to the boat.
Remember that if you are DIY boat blocking, even a small boat is heavy enough to kill you if it falls.
