Going Dingy!

How do you get a small outboard off the rail and into the dingy? If someone were filming me yesterday they would have won America's Funniest Videos. I also now understand what a reverse pendulum is. My 8 y.o. grandson told me I was at risk of punching a hole in the floor of my very small Westmarine inflatable. I ended up on my knees manhandling the little 3.5 onto the transom. It was just as awkward getting it back on the rail. There must be a better way! So tell me old salts, seriously, how is this done?
