I need to remove my Suzuki DT115 motor in order to rebuilt my transom.
I have two question:
How do I lift the motor off the boat? It appears to have two hooking spots

The picture I have label "A" worries me, because it appears to be Aluminum or cast iron. I plan on using a chain hoist hang off my rafters to lift the motor. I have everything removed except the steer cable. There doesn't seem to be enough room to pull the steering cable out. I hope that will be easier once I lift the motor up?
Is it safe to hang the motor for a two or three weeks? I plan on building a stand and put half the weight on the stand and 1/2 on the rafters.
Any advice would be much apprreciated.
