Interesting lift situation!! How does it connect on your bow and stern?
SnooFoxes5258@reddit (OP)
Liebherr 90T crane with 4 chains on its main hook which connect to each side of the the bow and stern sling with the port bow chain being shortened to account for hull geometry.
While it’s in the air it’s controlled by 2 lines fore and aft to guide it into the water when the crane swings round.

Looking good for the season. Looks like a sigma 33.
Have fun

Yeah it’s got to be a Sigma 33
SnooFoxes5258@reddit (OP)
It is in fact a 1987 Sigma 33 OOD

Nice yacht, sails really well. Did a lot of teaching on the 33 and 36. Did 2 Fastnets on the Sigma 36. Enjoy your season.

C&C?

I thought this too for a second. Similar hull/keel/rudder and windows/cabin top for sure

Sigma 33 OOD by marine projects (Plymouth) now known as princess yachts

Wait, is she coming out again “after a few months back in the water or is she ‘back in the water after a few months’?
The first would be rather tragic and beg the question why, the second being celebratory!

Spring has sprung in the uk and the boat is going back into the water as the season begins though it did have a incident where it’s brand new mooring completely failed a week after it was laid so a new rudder had to be acquired
