How hard can that be ?

Where's Ted Arcidi ...... or Bill Kazmier when you need him ?
You can actually do it w/the trailer tongue jack...let the tongue all the way down...but wooden blocks under the skeg and drop the motor's weight onto the blocks...have a couple of guys steady the motor and remove the bolts...continue raising the tongue jack until the transom holes are in line w/the holes you want in the bracket...seal and reinstall the bolts...off ya go!!...I did this w/the Merc...works like a charm...
