A small launch with a major bit of work to do to get it back to good working order.

The first job was to dismantle the steering, get rid of the wheel as you can not lift the engine box lid high enough to get to the engine stern gear coupling with it being removed  

A Vetus stern gear set up, a little over engineered for such a small boat

A compact setup, a good idea when you need to work on it for maintenance 

The problem end which caused the problem we have to overcome now, 

Well build engine box that doubled as a table.
