Installing Rowboat Lookout Tower

September 28, 2010

Over the weekend with the help of family and friends I installed a “Rowboat Lookout Tower” on 35th and Capitol in Milwaukee. This is part of a project organized by In:Site, a public art org in Milwaukee.


Raising the boat



climbing the tower to attach cables from the tower to the rowboat. We got the rowboat in the air by attaching pulleys to a second tower and pulling it up with a truck.

Here it is installed
