Lower units

[Tyme2fish]

I trim my motor down at top of ramp and start it for about 15 seconds and never had any trouble. Don't engage prop!

From what I've read, doing that even for that short period, can damage your impeller.

I just tilt the motor all the way down once I'm in the prep area.After allowing the lower unit to drain of water, I raise it up and attach the motor defloppilizer.
