The best way is to disconnect the trim ram and lift the outdrive up.
I've done this on outboard units when I've had trim motor problems.


You carry the tools to do that on the boat?


I do. in either boat the 18' or the 23', is a fairly well supply of
tools, electrical wire, tape wire connectors, etc. in the big boat, I
have a spare alternator, too!

Not saying it's all necessary, but 'tis best to have and not need,
than to need and not have.
