[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 469008, member: 13702"] I think he meant not to tilt the motor up while you're out on the water - not just once you get the boat back on the trailer. Even while you're bobbing along on the water if you've got the motor tilted up you could get icing around the impeller if you have the lower unit tilted up out of the water. When I'm out in the cold in fresh water I'm fishing deep structures so scraping the skeg isn't an issue and I don't ever tilt the motor up. [/QUOTE]
