I don't have one but I have a few ideas.

If you have a big tree with a large branch you can hook up a chain and pulley and use that along with a come-along (kind of a wench)

or you can use a 4x4 and chain the motor to that and use 3 or 4 friends to lift it out

me and my little sister pulled a 12a out of 79 using a 2x4 and cable from a comealong... wouldn't suggest putting one in that way, but if push came to shove.
