Trailering Your Boat
Check
local legislation in respect of boat transportation
by trailer - there are differences in various national
trailer regulations.
Boats with stern drives
Trim the stern drive up to its "lift position" (maximum
lift) before the boat is pulled onto the trailer for
transportation. It is possible to trim the stern drive
without starting the engine. When the stern drive has
reached the highest lift position an automatic catch
switches off the current to the trim pump. The catch is
released automatically when the stern drive is trimmed
down.
Always secure the stern drive in the up position with a
trailer kit (accessory) or similar so that it cannot fall
onto the trailer during transportation.
WARNING!
The engine must not be run with the drive in the “lift”
range.
Boats with reverse gear
Drain the water from the exhaust system to prevent
water entering the engine while the boat is being
transported by trailer.
Cold Weather Precautions
If the engine bay cannot be kept frost free, the sea
water system must be drained and the freshwater
system
coolant must have sufficient frost protection to
prevent frost bursting; refer to Maintenance, page 97
and Seawater System, Draining, page 99
respectively for more detailed information.
Check the charge status of the battery. A poorly-
charged battery can freeze and burst.
