I will be delighted to share any information you wish. Let me know what information you want and I will reply. The motor cost me $2800.00, the mount cost me $1000.00 and other expenses cost me about $750.00 for plasma cutting, fiberglass, filler, paint, etc. The anticipated outcome of being able to extract the motor from the water when not in use was realized. With this installation I will never have to replace the auxiliary. I can flush it internally and externally after each and every use.

An unbelievably nice job. Unfortunately that looks like it is beyond the budget and labor we have at our disposal. Care to disclose these details?
