Lifting the Spa on to the Deck

So the problem was simple. How do we hoist this spa (weighing in at about 180kgs) up on to the deck and into position? It was also raining quite hard, at least to start with.

We managed to slide it along and then lift it up on an angle until it rested on the edge of the deck, before all getting behind it and shoving it all the way on to the deck.

Because the deck was so slippery after all the rain it was a relatively simple matter of then sliding it across to the far end.

Some very happy and satisfied men...me, Paul, Steve, John and Edward.

Spa now in position. Electrician now has to connect the power to it, we fill it up and then we hope to be soaking in it. But of course it probably won't work and will need some kind of costly repair...but we'll see. Thanks Julie for the action shots.
