I ordered 2, 2 inch wrenches from Amazon to get the job done. The total cost including shipping was about $50.00.

Forgot to mention that my boat is also an 09 Hunter 33.

Bruce,
Vicegrip makes a large jaw pliers that work really well on the stuffing box-there's a pair on my boat if you need to borrow them-I should be at MYC on Sat & Sun and maybe Mon.
