2 steps forward 2 steps back. Got word from mechanic yesterday that in order to get cutless bearing off the shafts the rudder must come back out 
Oh well supposed to go in hoist tomorrow and he is going to do the bearings and get her wet. Or so I hope

That's the way it goes Dan. At least you have been able to work on the boat. Just yesterday our governor opened marinas up so now I can get going on the boat. You have a head start on me!

Congrats on the purchase Mark. And yes it is how it goes. Then the hoist wouldn’t clear another boat so they had to move it. Now we are prepping for flooding down there and you know. It will be all good and great once it is done. I am dying to go fishing

Ive use a hacksaw blade internally to cut almost all the way thru the bearing and heat. You also can make a puller out of half inch threaded rod, washers,nuts and a piece of 2 inch pipe.

They came out today.
Very close now to getting her wet.
Also mounted a net holder
And mounted new stair lights which I had to draw and 3D print because they don’t make that size light any longer. Will post pictures of them once the steps are in place.
