Two ways to do this. 1. get a 3/16 metal rod or something similar and poke it down the CB lift line channel. I have had some luck with this but not always. 2. Put on your mask and snorkel and dive under the boat. I have been able to all it down by had, but once had to use a big screwdriver to pry it down from the stern end. I keep the boat on a shallow morning and sometimes, at a very low tide, the keel is on the bottom and a small stone gets caught between the CB and the CB trunk. A barnacle can so the same thing.
