has anybody removed the engine skirts? do you have to remove shift and throttle cables? how about fuel and oil lines on the other side. going to take boat out of water this am and start this process so I can get skirts and hood to painter mon am . thanks in advance

gotta know what years it is....mid 90's-up, they will come off,just need to remove the trim switch

thanks had to take shift and throttle loose no big deal also had to slide fuel rail out of cover. Now on to sanding .hood and lower skirts go off to painter tomorow. New decals shiped yesterday.
