Best hack ever. Use your fenders to lift your engine. Deflate, insert under engine, then inflate and elevate. We’ve done it on a 4JH4E.

The times I’ve worked on my mounts before I’ve used a basic car jack to keep the engine in place and even lift it if needed for alignment work. But anyway, we’ll done, you did it 😊 I like your style!

I replaced them on a 4JHE not on a Hunter. I let new mounts sit for a week to settle before alignment check. Alignment was off for sure. I needed to buy a crow foot wrench to access a few of the mounts adjustment nuts. If you have not rechecked alignment you may want to consider disconnecting coulping and check alignment. I used same method as you did to re&re mounts. I bought a small inflatable pad for $15 that has a hand operated bulb that you squeeze to inflate the pad, used it along with various wood blocks to hold motor and slightly lift it. Great video BTW.

To adjust those you’re supposed to use a feeler gauge between the coupling of the motor and prop shaft. Even slight vibration do that this alignment. Causes undue wear and tear on the prop seal

Trav/ I bought a 20v mid range impact gun along with reducers, extensions and knuckles. I have a set of regular and deep sockets plus a set of large impact driver sockets. I always spray any nut/bolt the day before (if time permits) liberally with liquid wrench or other penetrating oil. Makes life with a 30 plus year old boat much easier to tear down..... I noticed the steel frame at the front of the engine compartment, maybe add another section over the top (center) of engine to make a mini gantry crane incase you ever need to do major engine work in the future. I also made a flexible 3 foot rod with a good magnet on the end to retrieve all the stuff that I end up with in the bilge.... Good job on the mounts.

That looked really tough trying to replace those motor mounts in the back. Glad everything lined back up, I was a little worried when I saw the new ones up against the old ones. Good job on helping out with the dragging monohull. It probably worked out better that way as apposed to the catamaran simply relocating. At least the monohull owner may have learned an important lesson before it cost him a big chunk of money.

When the ratchet slipped off and Steph said “feels like the socket broke”. I was hoping that she didn’t strip and round off the head of the bolt, that would have made this already difficult job a nightmare. Great entertaining video as usual.

But the new mounts are on average 3/8" to 1/2" taller than the old ones! It's the reason your changing them, So no matter what the motor has to be lifted slightly. Plan accordingly. I always hear, boat life is basically fixing a boat in exotic locations. Glad to see you guy's are making that saying come true!

good job; for a moment there I thought the new mounts were too high, but I guess they are fine, great. I really have no idea how you replaced the stbd front mount; there must have been a lot of language involved ;-)

how did the alignment worked? what rpm u run to verify? by now it should be obvious if flange bolt did not brake in 20h after change. i dont really imagine it is doable on the water to make it perfect , as you loose the fact center in the stern tube

Travis, The engine on the HP42 is tilted and the mount bases are flat, causing the mounts to tilt to the aft a lot, not recommended. You did not show an after picture. Did you try to do anything about that. I'm thinking of some kind of wedge material under the mounts. Your thoughts?

As soon as I saw “Yanmar engine” felt my back and knees start to hurt in sympathy. I have a 1986 Newport 30 with a crotchety old YSM-12 engine. My mixing elbow disintegrated at the end of last season, and finding replacement parts were almost impossible. I made to haulout in Bronte Harbour by doing a hillbilly repair with a ton of muffler tape. I finally found one place that could get the OEM parts in for me, but they came in a few days after I had major surgery. I told them I couldn’t come in for a few weeks, they said “No problem”. Then, a few days later I get a call: “Hi, we’ve declared bankruptcy, you can have your part if you can get here by the end of the day.” Sigh. I got the message after they closed for the day. I pestered them with messages and calls for another week, and then got a call “If you come right now, you can have your parts”. My wife was away, so I jammed my not-at-all-healed leg, in it’s huge splint into my car, and drove the forty minutes to the shop. It was like a drug deal - all in cash, slipped to me in the parking lot. The employee looked a little alarmed at my white face and my staggering gait, but I made it home alive. Now I have to wiggle into my tiny engine compartment and try to make the repair. I spent the winter ordering tools labeled as “great for tight spaces” and for working around corners. Fingers crossed. Good job on the replacements - even more impressive that you did it on anchour. Cheers, Lance. “S/V Great Escape”, Oakville, Ontario, Canada

Is there no possibility to make an access door on the opposite side of the engine? Maybe not the size of the current one on the port side. I see that there are some items like fuel strainer and some switches attached to the panel, but perhaps they could be consolidated to one area, allowing for a 2'x2' door with trim , hinges and latch. Just a thought as there seems to be a lot of items on the starboard side of the engine that may need maintenance work in the future,
