Hang in there.
Hey bud,
It will take a couple of hours to remove that engine from the boat. The job you have in front of you may not be as bad as you anticipate. By the time you start fooling around with outboards, mounts, accessory things that haven't even been anticipated...etc...it will be a nightmare.
Just to bring your boat alongside will be circus act. Trying to drive the boat, leaning back over the transom to control the engine, stop the boat etc...the boat is well over 10,000 lbs. By the time you slow it down enough to stop with an outboard, during an approach, it has lost steerage and could blow off .... you won't have the power to stay out of trouble.
I am trying to give you some really good advice. Fix your engine. Don't despair because it will go easier than you think.
