4. In the boat. Now the professional installers take over. Yard forklifted the engine to the salon floor, two guys muscled it onto the beds to check height. Spot on. Engine distributor let me borrow an engine jig but the installers didn't use it - just lifted the engine on and off until they had the alignment.

3. Cleanup and painting raised engine beds. I replaced all the bilge hoses and put in an additional electric bilge pump. Added plywood to the wall next to sink to seal up some openings and improve soundproofing. Beds needed to be raised a bit over 2" to accommodate new engine. Spacing between beds was fine. Glasswork was about $350.

2. Out goes the YSB12. The boom vang tackle brought the engine straight up, then used the mainsheet tackle to bring the engine back, swung the boom out to drop it on a dolly on the finger pier. Swing the boom slowly or the boat will heel and scare you to death, maybe put the engine in the water!

I won this boat on ebay.Noone seemed to realize the springs had broken until we tried to move her.The hull was full of water and might be why the springs gave way.I drilled a half inch hole in the transom and she drained for a long time.The previous owner thought I was nuts when the first thing I did was put a hole in the hull.This was how we improvised to get her on the road.It was a nervous and slow 230 mile trip home but we made it.
