Default Mercury 9.9 PRO Kicker

Hey guys just bought a new boat with this motor as the kicker. How do most trailer this motor all the way down? or is there a lock. I have not seen the motor yet, but I will be picking it up and driving a little distance to get it home.

Thanks,

All the way down when towing. Use the lock to hold it up when not in use on the water.

Cool

I keep mine at the same angle as the big motor when it's in the transom saver so it looks kool.

Tilted all the way down against the transom or do you use a 2nd transom saver to hold up the kicker?
