Bill, Your diver won't be able to see up into the trunk unless the tang broke off the centerboard. It would normally be sitting on the stop bolt, which will have the upper edge of the centerboard still in the trunk. If the tang is broken, and the board is swinging free under the boat, then your diver could tie a new pendant on for you and you can winch it up before you pull her out.

Thanks guys,
It sounds like the trailer trick might just work. I will have the diver check inside the trunk to see if there are obstructions in there before I try. When I get her home, I will use Tom's sawmoose idea to do the repairs.
