[QUOTE="Tbradley, post: 420163, member: 9883"] The Merc 60/40 I'm looking at weights in at 267 lbs, do you guys think the gas assist would really help or assist in tilting the motor up. I've read on other forums that guys with gas assist on motors of this size say that they can lift the motors up easily with the assist, just push down on the tiller while grabbing the back of the cowling, no problem. I just think the ability of the motor being able to kick up when you hit something would be much better than locked in with power tilt/trim. Am I thinking wrong on this guys?? [/QUOTE]
