Thank's guys. I will use 45' as a rule. This helps a great deal. my next
step was to climb up there with a tape measure and drop one end down.

Curtis,
Tape a yard stick to a halyard so the end will stick up above your masthead.
Tape a measuring tape to the yard stick. Hoist the tape until it is where you
want it. Swing the tape to the water. You will have a 2-3 inch safety factor.

Thanks for all the thoughts and suggestions. I could have used the
basketball trick and will keep that in my bag of tricks. Aside from
manipulating the mounts into position (straps, jacks and lots of grunting)
everything else went unremarkable. I left the aluminum rails in place but

Josh,
Good job on the replacements. I know it couldnt have been easy with the
access you have. I used Yanmar mounts when I replaced mine. It was very
simple. I have the PYI drive saver. I had to cut the prop shaft to

Thanks, it was difficult. I tried a scissor jack but couldn't turn the
handle because of interferences. So I did a lot of pushing, pulling and
lifting while my wife tried to un-wedge the old and re-wedge the new. The
