You carry the tools to do that on the boat?
I do. in either boat the 18' or the 23', is a fairly well supply of
tools, electrical wire, tape wire connectors, etc. in the big boat, I
have a spare alternator, too!
Not saying it's all necessary, but 'tis best to have and not need,
than to need and not have.
The reason I ask is because I actually needed to make a tool to get
the lock pin out of the tilt/trim on my Merc and it was in the
driveway. I can't imagine doing this in the water. You better be able
to stand up and you are probably going to loser something
Ok, I've got to ask.
Why the special tool and on what kind of engine?
