I have a 2007 9.9 that I am using as a kicker/trolling motor. When the motor is raised up on the trolling bracket while underway on the main engine, the prop spins like crazy because of the spray hitting it. Is this going to damage the motor?? I really dont want to relocate the bracket and if I tilt the motor up the steering linkage connected to the main engine outdrive comes apart because the 9.9 has to be tilted all the way up first in order to drop it down.
The other option I was thinking about is coming up with something to more or less capture the prop to stop the spinning until the kicker is needed.
Bottom line is I need to know if if the prop spinning in nuetral will cause problems.
Thanx! Dan
