Only six bolts hold it one, but it won't come off without either dropping the prop centre bearing or moving the engine/gearbox over.
Make sure the arrows on the doughnut point towards the flange to which they are bolted, and if there's a harmonic balancer fitted around the doughnut, you can leave it off with no ill effects.
