I am looking at a boat with twin 6LY2A-STP Yanmars.
The port side engine dip stick is easy to get to. The starboard side is way over on the far side of the engine under some decking. It looks like it would be very difficult to check oil.
Is is possible to get some kine of kit or something to move that dipstick to the other side so that it can be accessed more easily
 
Im assuming you are a twin...
There should be avdip stick on both sides of a 6LYA.
See.
Check them both once to compare results but use the most convenient one after that.
Unfortunately I've seen differing opinions as to which is more accurate.
