I am replacing the trim/ tilt motor on my yamaha 60 hp. It has 3 bolts with one in the back where you can't get to it. Is there some kind of trick to get to that bolt or do you have to pull the motor off?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

on my 40 I locked motor in the up position and pulled the top pin, this allowed the unit to tilt out a little from the transom and I could get to that 3rd bolt.
Hope that will work for you too

use a flexible ratchet extension, all hardware stores carry them.
