THE PORT ENGINE!!! :evilb:

Since we were limited on how high we could lift the engine by the ceiling of the shop, we had to set it down on wood legs, extend the lifting straps, and finish dropping it in. Tricky (and a bit hair-raising for RAddiction, who was in the bilge). but it worked....

Engine(s) by mood light. These are the lower lights that were installed last week. It is actually brighter that it appears here (bright enough to work), but a very cool effect.

Taking the day to re-organize the shop tomorrow, but hopefully we'll get to THE STARBOARD ENGINE ON Sunday.

Phew.....:drink:

Chuck, do the cables today:grinser010:All in all things went well.....a few years off my life while in the bilge but Dianne got me a drink when the motor mount bolts were tight. This project is off the hook, the rigging is awesome, the motors....I mean engines are works of art with the serp belt system chuck made and the plethora of powdercoated parts, diamond plate and polished parts.:cool-smiley-011:
