Re: hoisting motor?
I forgot to tell you that when I used the strap technique, I had 2 other guys helping. Plus, we removed 2 motors off my boat and the 2nd went much much smoother than the first. In other words, we learned from our mistakes on the first one because the way we had it strapped made it tilt. The 2nd motor went very smoothly. Have a mechanical steel hoist with movement in all directions was really nice too. 8)
Glad to hear you were able to get the motor off and sorry I didn't tell you more about my experience with it!

Re: hoisting motor?
what's wrong with your transom is rotted or just fixing cracks.

Re: hoisting motor?
Bluerunner, I know I should have gotten help. My problem is that I am a spazz and I got excited at 8pm on a cold Thursday night and said "what the heck". Bad choice but at least no bones or motor parts got broken.
I cut the skin off the transom to reveal bad, bad, wood. I cleaned it all out. My plan is to put the skin back on with spacers, glass the cuts up and fill the void with Seacast. Then put the motor back on. Anyone know how long the Seacast takes to get delivered? I haven't ordered it yet. I need some warmer weather before any type of resin will cure anyway.
