Well guys, the work has officially begun.

On the day after Easter (Monday 9th), I got together with a cousin of mine who helped me get the motor off the boat. So far I have pulled the rubber from the rubrail and most of the hardware from the top cap, in preparation for lifting the cap. I'm planning to leave most of the electrical alone until I start raising the cap, that way maybe I can see it a little better to strip it out. I really havent been able spend a lot of time on it yet, as we have been busy most of the week and the weather has been terrible.
