Let's try this again. The Anchor Windless Motor is ridiculously heavy. While the ship was still commissioned and this motor needed to be repaired, it was man handled by the men aboard ship. But that's why Altek brought a Come Along (pulley type system). Between the engine hoist and the come along, they were able to get it over the bulkhead and into the compartment. They started raising it before I was able to steel a picture.







Here you can see that this motor has to be affixed to the overhead and this is tricky business. They called it a day and will start again tomorrow.
