Trailering Boat/Outboard
Trailer your boat with the outboard tilted down in a vertical
operating position.
If additional ground clearance is required, the outboard should be
tilted up using an accessory outboard support device. Refer to your
local dealer for recommendations. Additional clearance may be
required for railroad crossings, driveways, and trailer bouncing.

IMPORTANT: Do not rely on the power trim/tilt system or tilt
support lever to maintain proper ground clearance for trailering.
The outboard tilt support lever is not intended to support the
outboard for trailering.
Shift the outboard to forward gear. This prevents the propeller from
spinning freely.
