Re: catalina27-talk: Removing Inboard Engine

[Mike & Dee]

Erik, I am in the process of replacing my 5411 with a 5416.  I pulled the 5411 using my main sail halyard.  My 5'1" wife cranked while I guided into a wheel barrow dockside.  We reversed the process to install the new engine.  Later I found that I had a bad engine mount.  She wasn't home.  I pulled the engine out by my self by running up and down like a crazy man.  You really don't want that engine loose, hanging on a halyard in the cabin, or anywhere else - especailly with the boat in the water.  Now, if perhaps I have been of help you will come to my house and align this bugger!
