Jon,

 

The “Blackfish” looks like what I used last time. I can verify the size today 
while I’m at the boat.  Yes, it’s a bit longer than needed, but it’s easy to 
shorten with a hacksaw.

Off the top of your head, do you know the dimensions of the cutlass bearing for 
the 35-3?

1" shaft I know. length and outside diameter is what I'm looking for. I'm 2 1/2 
hours away. Looking to save a trip. 

A friend said he would lend me his strup-pro.

Erik,

 

I’ve done the cutless bearing on my boat twice.  I’ve removed the rudder both 
times.  It’s not that hard and it went quicker the second time around.  As 
others have said, removing the shaft from the coupling is usually the hardest 
part.  I had a friend that build a jig to push the shaft out.  Worked great.  
The first time I used sockets between the coupler faces to force the shaft out. 
 It was a slow painful process.
