Hi Dave:

If you take close look at picture #4 in Tech Tip B01 
(http://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/2358/b_hull_tips/b01.html), you will 
see a small eyelet along the back of the blade, at the same end as the 
centre board hole.  This is where the lift cable attaches to. As to 
whether or not the eyelet is exposed when the board is down, the answer 
is I don't know. Several people report that they can and others claim 
they can't.  I was supposed to dive down to mine this past summer to 
confirm this but forgot. Maybe somebody on this distribution list can 
shed some light on it. 

I know you can definitely access it if you remove the board from the 
keel.  This involves either hoisting the boat with a crane or jacking 
the boat up as I've described in Tech Tip B01.
