We finally resorted to the manual lift. I was able to start at the corner then the others joined in with lifting and bracing until we had it opened and secured.

Thanks. Yes, I bypassed the reed switch and hear the relay click. I did a voltage check on the relay and it was good. As you saw in my original post, I replaced the two pop-out breakers just in case, as well as the helm switch and the relay...

Thanks
