lifting a M 15
by flickasf＠aol.com 13 Nov '09

13 Nov '09

I spoke to both Bob Eeg and Jerry Montgomery. I combined their two methods of lifting and came up with the following as a temporary solution which I will make permanent when I have it done in wire. 1. a line from the port and starboard chain plates attaching to a lifting ring. The lifting ring is made for the purpose and is rated. It does not have a weld. The lines extend up 7 to 8 feet. 2. the lines attach to a Wichard shackle on each of the chain plates. They go in the extra holes. 3. a continuous line from one aft cleat to the other with a loop in the center, 4. a block and tackle from the loop to the lifting ring. This enables you to find the balance point. I used this method to lift the boat and make adjustments to the bunks on my new Pacific Trailer. Eventually, I will add a pad eye to the port and starboard toe rail about 18 inches from the aft quarters. I'll use these as my aft lifting points. The rear bridle will be replaced with wire. A single wire will go from this point to the lifting ring. It 's possible that I will go directly to the lifting ring. Bert Felton Zephyr, M 15

I used small eye straps for the line to run through, mounted diagonally just in from the corners. On Mon, 9 Nov 2009 22:24:49 -0500 "Joe Murphy" <seagray(a)embarqmail.com> writes: > Very Clever!!

On CornDog I ran the line up one side, across the top of the lid, and then down the other side. That makes the setup stronger, and gets the line out of the middle of the locker.

Monty t-s and caps update
by Nebwest2＠aol.com 09 Nov '09

Hang in there Gang! Sorry for the delay....Shirts are done and the hats are going to be doe this week , they promised. We ran into a snag from the shirt supplier. When we went to order the Long Sleeve T-s the ash gray color was no longer available. We had to go with a darker gray for those. If anyone is decides that they just cant live with the darker gray color you can let me know and we'll work it out. I held out for a week trying to get the ash color but it wasn't to be. All the other items are in the ash gray color. I'll be emailing you all offline as we ship everything. Thanks for your patience. Sean
