Nice Boat, Bobby. I flipped my Coho for spraying quite easily; took 2 persons. Had adjustable pads, ala Wayne Reinhart to cradle the hull. Stage one: inverted with small spanners across the hatch openings. A flat board rests across the pads with the spanners laying on the board. The spanners were taped in place so they didn't need to be adjusted each time. Leave just a few inches dry on the very ends of the boat during 1st stage varnishing. When ready, lift boat with one hand, remove flat board, gentle rotate, and set kayak down on the pads. Stage 2: varnish the deck. very stable in both positions. Practice the maneuver a couple of times before it is wet
