I trailer with mine partway up. I learned from the guys trailering Baja,
and cut a length of PVC pipe and cut an opening down the side and it snaps
on to the piston rod, so the motor rides on the PVC instead of on the
piston.

I wonder more about the wear it gets on the water. I had to
replace the support pin on my old Honda once.
