photo shows the wing keel that I need to paint under and above that is one of the 6 one square foot pads. There is also a 2×6 where the keel meets the hull. I was thinking of raising the boat where the bricks are piled but I jacked it up an inch or so, it did not move the keel so I quit that thinking I might do damage to the hull. on the hull between the dark and light blue is the sling marks. So I still have to lift it about 8 inch or wait until I go to a marina with a lift and paint it then.
This boat has a fin keel so the bottom of the keel is about 24×18 inches and then 6 pads at 12×12 inches. to reach under the keel I would have to raise it at least 5 or 6 inches.
not sure I how to use the “front pads or back pads to raise the” boat. Do you have an idea how to raise it safely if I do not have a sling to surround the boat.
