#1 (**permalink**) 05-09-2010, 02:17 PM

Hi,
I got a question: what is correct trim position, if i`m not going to use boat for coupe weeks?
Is it better to set trim in lower position?
Thank you

Best to trim it up out of water, if it's on a boat lift then down is ok.

Thank you for fast answer.
As i understood if engine is installed on the boat(fresh water), the better way is to keep engine in water, in the very lowest trim position.

This is probably good way to safe trim&tilt motor life, right?

Even some fresh water lakes or rivers can be corrosive, so I prefer to keep them out of water.
