Hi Eric,

Yea, that's the one! I have since built a more substantial gang plank that is detachable. (don't remember ever posting a house boat pic, and don't even know of one)

I never thought of dragging it partly on shore. Since it's so heavy, I think it would stay put.

I hope that hurricane goes somewhere else, like Antarctica.

Thanks for the good wishes, and the great idea.
