A question.. There is a 7ft tide where I boat. The original 6hp Evenrude on my 85 O'Day was not quite adequate for a 4to 5 knot current. I purchased a new 9.9hp 4stroke Evevrude that weighs 115 lbs. The old moter weighed 64 lbs. Oncethe new motor is lowered in the water it is too heavy to lift back out due to springs on the motor mount being not stong enough to lift it.What can be done?? I can't leave it in the water due to rapid fouling in warm water.Any suggestions???
