Hello,
If you are at all handy and access to the coolers isn't awful, this isn't a bad task. I believe the coolers are salt water. If so, even easier. You can close the sea cocks and pull off the water hose. You will get maybe a gallon of sea water in the boat, no harm. Wrench off the xmission lines and quickly tape off the ends to keep from losing too much fluid. Have an oil pad under the cooler to catch any fluid spillage. If there is enough slack in the fluid lines, you can try to pull them higher than your gearbox to stop leakage.
You will need to make sure they are salt water cooled. You should be able to trace the lines back to the sea cock.
Regards,
Paul
