Have a little 14 Jon Boat that we use as a river boat (Saluda River) equipped with a 15hp Merc 4 stroke. Sweet little rascal.
As there is no tilt or trim other than the manual cross bar, whats the recommend method of trailering the motor? Up on the motor lock and then turn to one side or leave it down?
I don't really care for leaving it down as you can whack stuff with the lower unit driving down the road, angled drive ways etc... Up in the lock position it is clear of road hazards, but just wondering how much stress is being put on the transom.
How are you guys trailering these little motors?
