What size tractor is that in the middle photo? I have one that looks the same and didn't think it would move the boat......

Me too. I can r & r mine in about 3 hours. My buddy has a similar truck, but much shorter boom. Only problem is its an hour drive from me. So I guess 5 hours total.

Where I live that 3 hours of time saves 600-1000 bucks!

Its a BX 23 Kobota.I welded up a mount for the front and used existing holes in the frame.I made the ball changable and I use the tractor to move all my trailers around the yard.That is my garage the boat is parked in front of.I have 1.5 inches on each side to get the boat into the door.No way I could do it with the truck,so I made this work.Works perfect
PS I tapped a wire into my head light switch and to trailer so I can lock out brakes in reverse by just turning lights on.

Otis,

as you know this is my first boat and I was trying to get the oiled drained through the dip stick tube.I couldnt turn the hole boat upside down so I pulled the motors to flip them.Worked out great.I'll see you next weekend on your lake.PARTY TIME

Great news, I had a feeling it would work out just fine.
That was very nice of you to pull the motors so Cathy could clean the bilge
