here's the engine stand...even after i modified it it still wont let me get close enough to it...but i may be able to get it mounted with 2 people, but i'm trying to get it so i can do everything myself, mount and unmount motors... i might have to modify the front hoist legs so that are alil more spread out.

I have done my alone, but I use a come along or a chain fall.

I don't know hjow high that thig you have goes, but if you mke the stand legs short on the oter side from the motoer that would get you closer? The weight of the motor would be on the long leg side and balance nice.

Just getting over the top?? Or come at it from the side??

Or hang a chain fall or come along in the garage and transfer to it to add to the stand, use the hoist for mounting on to the boat?
