    I’m confused, just which bolts/screws did you remove??  You mention six bolts “at the bottom of the gearcase bullet”.  I sure hope I have misunderstood.  Removing those screws along with the shift linkage thru screw will allow the skeg to come off the gearcase, something you sure don’t want to do.

    I’m hoping you have been able to remove the gearcase assembly and that I have misunderstood.  D
