Since often (too often) boats develop problems with
an outdrive requiring the boat to be pulled, which is
often quite the pain in the ass, it seems there should
be some way of putting an enclosure around the
outdrive which is big enough to hold a person, so
it could be pumped out and someone could get in
to work on the drive. Does anyone know of such?




See............. cofferdam or cason

But why bother when ya can just yank the boat out with a sling
put on the beach at high tide.... wait for low tide
put lift bags on the stern bouy the aft end up
there are a few others but anint gonna give up all my secrects.

Duhh, put it on a trailer and take it home................
