Power Trim

Power Trim allows the operator to adjust the drive angle while
underway to provide the ideal boat angle for varying load and water
conditions.
IMPORTANT: Each boat manufacturer has the option as to how
the power trim will function on their particular boat. The boat
owner/operator must be aware of how the power trim functions
before operating the boat.
