I have some spots that I sneak into, I am sure we all do and if I was able to raise the motor five or six inches then that would be ideal. I have had my V in real skinny water, two feet or so and I used the auxilliary 9.9hp Suzuki I had on to do it. You are always taking a big risk with your big engine down, or even trimmed up to do it cause of rocks, debris etc. and you are causing your engine to suck more air in along with sand and mud.
So if your purpose is to get into skinny water then it should be ok, if you are doing it for general running or engine shaft length problems then it might not be a good idea for the reasons skools sites.
Agreed!
This little baby bring be back to the dock, no waiting on Sea Tow plus I can skim in 2 feet of water !
See the scars on the Lower Unit of the 140 ? Darn Lakes in FL :)
