My father in law has a Triton bass boat with a 225 Merc outboard. One of the coolest features of the motor is an auxilliary waterproof tilt switch on the engine cowl, so you can stand beside the motor and tilt it up and down to place the motor jack. When I take my Q7i out of the water, I tilt the motor down as much as possible to drain water while I am putting the boat cover on for the ride home, I tilt it up for travel (easy to do, hold the up tilt switch until you hear it reach the fully up position, and then put it down while my boat is stored. Up is no problem of course, but unless you are a good guesser, you need someone to watch the motor while you tilt down to prevent the skeg fin from hitting the pavement. I'd love to have a waterproof tilt switch, like outboards have, mounted somewhere on the rear of the boat so that I can do this unassisted, while I can see the motor myself. Has anyone tried/done this? Just curious. Thanks in advance!
