Outboard Removal

[ElBichoMalo]

Hey guys,

Wife decided if I bought a boat, she could buy new floors. Been busy, dealing with that, so not much time to start my project yet. Just trying to "get my ducks in a row" though.

I'm going to start off re-coring the hatches and then jump into the transom. However, never done anything like this, so I am a little green. Got to wondering, what is the best/easiest way to pull an outboard? Not exactly lightweight. Is there a special jack or cherrypicker? How about a stand for during the transom rebuild? Obviously, you have all done this, so should be an easy answer I hope!

Thanks,
Evan.
