Guys can anyone help me out with why my pictures go sideways every time??? They’re always straight when I upload them

[Boonie23]

Tried to rotate before uploading

The only time I’ve had problems with pictures being sideways or up side down was when I took the with my phone and directly up loaded to the site...what I usually do is up load to my desk top first then up load to the site and they are right side up every time. You have the option of editing your posts to try an make them right..or I could do it...and have but to be perfectly honest I do not have the time or desire to fix everyone’s photos for them...

The last one I uploaded to my desktop first and that one came out straight. Seems like that’s the best way to do it. Thanks Strick! I’ll try to edit the posts later and fix the others.

Thanks Strick. I'm hoping so! lol

Strick is right....like a tank!! Amazing how using coosa as you did makes the hull so strong and light!! You actually have more bulkheads than my brother's and his is really strong and light!! Besides going with coosa may have saved you money versus going with wood!! I can't believe the cost of wood right now, especially plywood.

Don, you're not kidding wood is insane right now. And I know my boat will be strong I just hope its not too heavy.
I think it should definitely be lighter than original because of all the wet foam and the liner that I took out but I'm not sure. This is my first build and first time working with Coosa so everything is a learning experience.

As far a weight goes I think Coosa is about 25% lighter then the same thickness and size sheet marine plywood. There is a guy on THT that has been soaking a piece of coosa for years now and it has not absorbed any significant amount or water...he posts the results once a year.. here is a interesting thred over there about coosa vs plywood...

Coosa. Is really strong and much much lighter than wood.

I’ll never put wood in structurally again. Now teak is another story. Never enough of that.

Might I just add really nice job rebuilding it and documenting it. Thats well done.
