    Be easy on me please. Total newbie.

    being a 1990 searay that sat. I would seriously do some test drills on the transom and stringers prior to worrying about the motor. my guess is that the boat will need about $5k worth of hull restoration long before you have to worry about the motor.

    The A-frame I built for pulling my SBC was 3 2x10s across the top, 3 2x6 verticals and 2x6 angle braces and stringers. Would have lifted 5x the load I had on it. When I was done, I used the lumber to make a mezzanine for storage in the storage unit. I did find a harbor freight A-frame in...
