Author	Topic:   Lifting ring for Yamaha 130/115
Plotman	posted 06-23-2006 04:28 PM ET (US)         I am installing a couple of new jack plates this weekend and need to hoist my engines. I would like to know what the lifting point is for these engines. Do I need a ring or eye bolt like Mercury uses? My manual is 100 miles away, so I can't look it up. In the past to change mounting holes I have always balanced the engines on the skeg while tied off with ratchet straps, but for this I think I need to hang them. They are 1991 Yamaha V4 engines. Thanks David
