Preparing to truck Reliance to Oregon

Reliance, last day at anchor

Mark at the helm

Underway and other Scenery

De-rigging

Crane Arrived, removing masts.

Climbing to attach the lift rope just below the spreaders. A smaller line is led from the lift rope to a mast winch to keep it from sliding upward.

Lifting

A bat emerged from the top of the main mast after we'd unstepped it. It promptly flew away to find a new home.

The mizzen mast was removed in a similiar fashion.

No masts!
