This site has become my favorite place to go on the net when I've got a couple quick minutes to kill or need advice. Thanks to your help on this site, the motor I got with my boat went from not even starting, to running like a CHAMP! I need to call on you all again to help me out with what should be a simple issue, but is proving to stump me yet again (not hard to do )
I cannot figure out how the heck to lock my 1979 Evinrude 25hp up for landing. There is a small latch on the transom mount that will lock the motor down for operation, but I can't find anything that will lock it up when I'm launching the boat. My dad and brother both had Mercs when I was growing up and they just had that little "L" shaped lock on the side of the lower unit that you would overcenter to hold it up. I don't see anything like that on this motor. Any help would be great. Thanks again!
