    Always wonder how they drop hull lines building big boats outdoors, not to mention rolling it over afterward.

    Why would they need to roll the hull over?

    Many boats, at least smaller wood boats, are framed and planking begins upside down. I am guessing that one is 100 feet long, I doubt it was flipped. Too much risk of breaking it.
