    Bought my first boat to cut, gut and rebuild from bow to stern, including engine. Killed my back and suffered the wrath of the fiberglass demons

    OK I will have it sit for now and get it bolted down first thing when I have a free day. Is it too much also if I were to attach the hook on top of the engine to the cherry picker for added support in case the stand decided to tip?

    Alright, alright...I'll fess up......So I did a thing.....probably against anyone's liking. I know I mentioned a while back that I was talking to a guy who had a 30+ year old Mercury motor that he would sell to me as in after he got it into working order for 1350 with power trim. Don't worry...
