Another job well done, that’s a good photo essay too Norman you should submit it to one of the boating mags. It’s good when all goes to plan with any work, usually bolts are seized, bits are worn and a whole host of other problems turn up. Fingers crossed that the bearings on my boat will not go the same way, if they do though I now know who to come to for help 
Will Slinky be back in the water in time for the weekend; the forecast looks pretty good?
By the way, your prop needs cleaning; you should have antifouled it at the last lift-out
