Best way to flip a boat over


[Aluminum Boat and Repair Board ] [F A Q ]

I'm going to caot my 16 ft aluminum V hull with bedliner this weekend, and I think it will be a much easier job if the boat is flipped- hullside up. Does anyone know the easiest way to do this? I've removed the motor, and will remove any excess weight I can. I'm just looking to make it a bit easier to do a good job of it. I figure it might weigh 500 pounds, manpower is not a problem. Also, should I be concerned about stressing the hull? It's riveted, not welded. Any help will be appreciated.
