Thanks for all of the advise. My boat/trailer sits on a slope to the front, so I have been jacking it way up so the water will flow out the back, but it does not allow me to put the engine all the way down. I think I would rather have a litle water in the hull (put some anti freeze in) and make sure I have the engine all the way down.

How will you get antifreeze out of the bilge once it's in there? If you let it out by way of gravity later, make certain you contain it or it could kill pets. You don't want to pump it out with your bilge pump.

Mine still has a very slight tilt. I think you'll be fine as long as you tilt it down as far as possible without hitting the skeg. ;)
