October 2015 - Moving old diesel generator

The latest plan for launching the new boat, hopefully in 2016, is to move it north out of the net loft onto a platforn,
then west down a ways to the water. An old generator is in the way so we are moving it.

Two alders on the left have to go
so the generator trailer can be
moved down toward the beach

Get a line around the alder to pull it
to a better position
