Marineweld made the tanks, the marina we're in (wroxham marine/sheerline) did the crane bits, I did the rest.
Cranage involved my strops on their hook to my chainblock and loose ropes so instead of being in a closed space with 1/2 ton of swinging iron we could gently lean on the engine and the boat would move under it, much safer when it's all fluid, I can live with broken bones but crush injuries are 10x worse as I'm sure you will know, had to use a cable winch to pull the engines back to the mounts as the sunroof is too far forward and it all worked very well.
Now well and truly pi55ed, Ali's in bed after lots of falling over sessions on the way home, wish I'd had a camera with me......
