Slinging a Cessna 210 fuselage

Hi

I have been asked to sling the fuselage of a Cessna 210 that did a successful emergency landing after an engine failure. The area is to short and rough for a take-off should the engine be repaired/replaced.

The engine and wings are being removed at the moment, and will be transported by boat, there are no roads nearby.

Has anyone any experience in slinging a fuselage?

- Where and how to attach the strops?
- Length of line to be used?
- any other factors to take into consideration?

I expect it should fly like a fat EM bird, which I have experience with.

Please let me me know here or email me.

Thanks

Thilo
