A container to catch the gear oil as it drains out.

John, I think you should take it back to the dealer and let them
change it, only on condition that they refill with Quaker State from
Walmart.

I change fluids in several of my engine driven devices, etc. I have a
vacume pump used for auto mechanics. Nice little device with tubes and
catch jars that can get almost anywyere. You can probably get one at
the local autoparts hardware store. Mine is in a neat little carry
case, bout the size of a timing light case.

I have this one:

I'm hoping there's a cheaper, simpler alternative! That is cool though.

Cheaper?? How much did you pay for the boat? Mine gets the most use if
I overfill something... Anyway, I did not notice the price when I
posted. I bought mine 20 years ago but some kind of suction pump
is handy in any garage, check wallmart for a cheaper version sometime,
great to have around even if you don't use it on your boat.

Maybe if brain-dead Herring would look at his engine, he'd realize that
gravity will drain out the oil and if attaches the right sized plastic
hose, it'll drain right into a container that can be taken to a place
that accepts oil for disposal.

Any competent boat salesman would have introduced a new customer to
someone in the shop who would have demonstrated the various
owner-maintenance features. But I guess if you buy a new engine off ebay...
