Easy center board removal. Slide the boat off the trailer onto the
grass. Put up the mast, grab the main halyard and pull the boat over onto
its side. Then you can remove the center board up through the cabin. Or
after getting it off the pin you can slide it out the bottom after you
remove the lines. Have it sandblasted at your car repair shop (cost me
$20.00) then paint. Be sure to grease up the slot area that slides on the
pin. Hope this helps.
