    Frank, I started removing every bolt and nut that remotely looked
    like it could be holding either the steering bracket or
    the lower unit. Unfortunately, I can’t get the clam shell bolts
    to budge, using my big screw driver with a wrench on it for
    leverage. Doesn’t help that the motor is on an engine dolly
    with casters. Tried wrapping the screw driver with a hammer,
    WD-40, etc.
    Any ideas?

    I removed the items marked with the "green" stars, the "red" star
    bolts are "no go".
    Thanks!
