" We are a small group (4
" We are a small group (4 guys) of old fishermen ranging in age from 68 to 77, actually 89 if we count uncle Don. We have fished and lived in the same small community most of our lives and known each other 40 years or more. We try to do as much as we can to help each other maintain our aging fleet of boats. This spring we want to place two Johnson outboards on the flagship of our fleet (an aging 25' Aquasport with a perfect transom). The problems are twofold. One is a 1998 130 HP and the other is a 1992 140 HP. The shaft lengths are the same at 25". The worst problem is going to be moving the engines from the transoms of their respective boats (these are going to be sold or given away) to the transom of the big Aquasport. We have all of them on trailers and can manuver them around on a concrete parking area at the fish house. Can we build a rack with wheels and do this? The 225 Johnson on the Aquasport is the hardest one to deal with. Thanks for any ideas or help.
Best regards,
