Welcome to the forum.

The inquiry answer depends on the boat / engine and configuration.

Some are "easy", while others are impossible.

Please provide more details and possibly also images.

This image looks like your boat.



The boat will need to be yanked and blocked on the hard. The outdrive removed, then the engine pulled.
