From the boat to the dock



 With the engine lifted out of the cabin, we determined that where we had to attach the boom to the engine to bring it out of the cabin meant that we could not swing it directly over to the waiting engine lift on the dock finger.  We had to lower the engine to the bench (still not far outboard enough for the engine lift to be attached)


By moving the engine up to the coaming we were able to get the engine in a position that we could then attach it by chain to the engine lift (we put some wood under it to protect the boat).  Of course this meant that the engine lift's extension legs could not be used because the dock finger was so narrow.
