Re: [Electric Boats] Re: removing old engine

 



>
I sold my Perkins 4-108 (that was running at the time) for $1000 plus removal.  I helped on the removal to make sure my boat wasn't trashed.  We disconnected everything then with the tranny still attached used come-a-longs to hoist it up on a pipe strapped between two supports made from 2x4's  we pulled it back into the salon and rested it on a wood frame on the saloon floor and moved the wooden pipe frame so that one end was out the forward hatch.  Then using another come-a-long attached to the outside end of the pipe, we hoisted it up with the original come-a-long and pulled it forward and out the hatch with the other.  Once on deck we did the same procedure to get it onto a dolly on the dock. 

While I sold if pretty cheap (the guy was a fellow 41 William garden design Ketch owner who needed an engine), it was worth it for me to have him also remove it.
