How do you lift an outboard motor from the transom to the dinghy?
There are as many ways to lift an outboard motor from the transom and down to the dinghy as there are sailors - some ideas are better than others; some ideas depend upon a strong back. Here's one suggestion that uses brains, not brawn: Use your mainsail halyard. Tie the dinghy (fore AND aft) alongside with the aft end nearest to the mother-ship's mast. Attach the mainsail halyard to the motor and winch it up slowly. When the halyard tightens enough then jiggle the motor upwards to come off the rail, then "walk" it forward towards the mast, winching in more line as you go. Once the motor is amidships, winch in enough line for the motor to clear the rails then slowly lower down to the dinghy. This method works best with two people but with practice one person can handle it. I know: That's the way I handle my dinghy motor.
