What happens if the trim fails in the water. You couldn't pull the

get it out of the water?

Most have a pressure release valve you can open with a screwdriver,
raise the motor (or drive if an I/O) turn the screw back in and the
motor will stay up.


And that's great, that is, if you can get to it. Some boat mfj's love
to hide the pump in the most inconvenient places.

Been there, done that.
