Well, the money spent making sure she would do it- safely - would eclipse the cost for a road move, so we had to conclude that was the more sensible option.
After running her up earlier, my heart's still telling me I ought to reconsider. But a clear head and the chequebook rule.
Sorry chaps...
Thanks for that response and clarification. I found out about the move when a friend commented on FB.
From an engineering perspective alone, aside from the logistical planning, dismantling then re-assembling the Shack, will make for some complex operations. Are you planning on recording the whole process please because I feel it would make for an interesting documentary. Even more so when she is run again after the move if this is the intent.
