Auto tritm/tilt ?
I was wondering to install a switch that when you hit it, the motor will tilt all the way up automatically? I fish shallow most of the times and in rocky bottom most of the time, so when i get up to fish i always trim tilt the motor all the way up.. its takes lke 10 seconds but when im in a tournament those 10 sec are hell...
looking for a way to tweak this... any ideas?

Not to be a wise guy, but as you approach a fishing spot, start trimming up. Before the boat stops moving, you will be at full tilt.

I'm sure there is a timer out there somewhere that would work..

I do trim before i get to the spot but i let the prop in the water so i can move forward... when i shut the boat off then i trim it all the way up for the prop to be above water... then with the TM i get in the exact spot where i want to be...Originally Posted by jc2bg
Do you just not want to sit at the console? Install a trim switch up on the bow. Step on the up button. Works for me.

Why do you need the prop to be above water ?
Yeah, I don't get this either. I see guys all the time with their props tilted out of the water, and I wonder whether they realize the entire boat is at least a foot under the water. Not to mention that with the entire lower unit in the air, the boat spins like a kite with every gust of wind.
