My 225 Yamaha also has one of those, but the manual says "don't use it
for trailering." I agree, as it is a lightweight little prop, and it
is easy to see how a big-time bump in the road might break it.

In the good old days, I used a chunk of 2x4 wedged in there to keep
the motor up and to take the strain off the rams.


Mine is a nice piece of steel that rotates up into place. I'm guessing
this M-Wedge slides over the tilt ram to support the motor?

When I had an outboard there was a common outboard support. It
consisted of a bar with a v bracket on either end. I haven't been at
the ramps resently, but I am sure they are still common use.
