outdrive position for storage
Hi Fred, what will happen is:
The rams will corrode, collect dirt and dust, possibly freeze in
position. (Drive up and, be a real pain in the butt come spring.) Ram
and cylinder assemblies cost about $300.00 each + installation and zincs.
You will not have these issues if you store the drive in the full
lowered position with the rams retracted. Were I you, I would take a
charged battery to the boat and drop the drive.

I was told to store my outdrive in the down position. When I got the boat
to the covered storage, the battery was dead and I couldn't lower the drive.
Will this cause me any problems?
