<div dir="ltr"><div>Sean,</div><div>I borrowed this 0.5 ton gantry from a friend. Lifted all the heavy parts with it and I was able to lift half the sub with the chain, and the other half with a jack or engine hoist so I could move the entire boat around. Not a massive gantry, but did the job. I also made 2x roll around cradles to spin the hull around on. 1 had wheels on so I could move it all around.</div><div> </div><div><a href="http://www.guernseysubmarine.com/publication2_files/Page334.htm">http://www.guernseysubmarine.com/publication2_files/Page334.htm</a></div><div> </div><div><a href="http://www.guernseysubmarine.com/publication2_files/Page12078.htm">http://www.guernseysubmarine.com/publication2_files/Page12078.htm</a><span><span><span></span></span></span></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 5 February 2017 at 00:21, hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org" target="_blank">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><div id="m_-5122222332853447054yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486253849440_3258"><span>Rick,</span></div><div id="m_-5122222332853447054yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486253849440_3256" dir="ltr"><span id="m_-5122222332853447054yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486253849440_3255">I think I paid 600 C for my winch.
