Removing the deck lid






I took two 2x4's some rope, eye bolts and two come alongs and rigged the deck to be lifted off the hull. The deck lid is not that heavy so I used the main beam of my building to support my rigging. I used my 8 foot ladder so I could reach my come along and I slowly started cranking up the deck. I would alternate from back to front so I could lift it as evenly as I could, because remember I'M doing this boat all by myself. My helpers are only 5 and 3. I was very pleased when I was finished because my plan worked.
