Congratulations in order for the entire crew! I'm sure there is still lots to do but the move is a huge step. Will be watching for pictures of the move.

OUTSTANDING!!!! This is a major milestone for your team and PT 305. The only thing better than standing on her proud deck in Aug 2015, will be standing on her deck as she gets underway. My Heartfelt congratulations to both!!
Take care,
TED

Randy,
Can we get a picture of you riding on the bullnose during the move? It would be fitting. Congrats to you and all your crew!

Nice Posts Randy, cant wait to come see her up close. Congrats on the move! Jerry
PS I think the cameraman needs to get another job because the footage is so shaky it gives me vertigo trying to watch as he walks and continuously moves the camera shaking the picture violently at times. I know it was not you behind the camera, tell him not to quit his day job! LOL
