My tilt/trim has been acting up for about a year....it drifts down slowly. Well last week it got to the point where it wasnt so slow anymore and actually had to bump trim button every couple minutes to keep motor trimmed while running.

Got a brand new trim pump/motor installed along with used( but freshwater) trim cylinder assemblies(my cylinders were fine, but looked bad) this past weekend. Im fortunate to be buddies with my mechanic and fortunate that he is a huge Merc man. He only charged me $650 parts/labor so I gave him an extra $100...

Back in the H20!

Yeah it was one of those things that bugs you while your using the boat, but doesnt bug you enough in the off season to get it fixed......or to loose a couple good weekends in the summer!



......till it totally went!
