Just recently got this boat running again so far have been very pleased with the way that it is running the only problem I am having now is that the tilt will not stay up once i put in gear for shallow water or loading on trailer HELP

That is because a 280 does not have trim, only tilt.

Sometimes you may be able to tilt it up some, but you can't run it much over idle or it will push it back down.
