Winter rebuild

Good day,

I am starting a new thread where people can follow my progress of the tear down and rebuild of a late model atomic 4 stevedor, out of a 1974 C&C27.

This past weekend I managed to remove the engine from the C&c being carefull to label everything that is disconnected.

Using my boom, main halyard, and main sheet I easily rigged a simple Derrick. By attaching the halyard to the end of the boom then detaching the main sheet from the traveler, and then to the motor, I was able to hoist the boom up to approximately 50-60 degrees. Using two lines to then stablize the boom from slewing side to side. Taking up on the four fold purchase on the main sheet rove to advantage, made lifting the motor manageable by a single person.

Once clearing the companion way hatch easing of the main halyard and slewing the motor over the side was easily managed by a single person.
