Can't get to oil filter and question about filter

[Lou C]

The pix above are how I re-did the rear seats/wood bulkheads....and show the access to the oil filter and starter...both are not too bad...I have seen some boats (mostly newer boats with the molded in 'glass around the rear seats that's part of the top cap) that are awful.

With the remote filter like Challenger has,I poke a hole in the top of the filter, then remove the motor oil while the filter is draining down. Do a few other maintenance items, then remove the filter. No mess.

Thanks to those that added other oil filter brand/model numbers to the list. Added them to my little notepad I keep on my phone for when I'm out shopping

By far the easiest method is to pull the motor and install the remote setup.
