It requires medium to reasonable skills, and some luck. I doubt it that on a C 35 that the rudder would have to be removed. Problem 1: Pulling the prop. Often, you need to heat up the prop in order to remove the prop Problem 2: Remove old bearing. There are specific pullers that can be used to

Re: Stus-List Fuel Storage morphing into Dink towing...

Oh no, I would not recommend to tow the dinghy with an outboard on, especially in any seaway. It increases the center of gravity, and a 4 ft wave at the right time and angle may be enough to flip it. Then you will have a much harder time to right it, and probably junk the engine. Secondary issue
