I just purchased this boat and cannot figure out how to have prop disengaged when starting. The manual says there is a button to push on the bottom side of shifter .I tried pushing in on the side of shifter to no avail???
Cannot see any button. This is on a 1984 searay seville 140 four cyl. Any help greatly appreciated.

My 1983 shifter is a pull out to disengage the shifter. Try pulling the lever out from the mounting plate at the center.

Post a picture of your control. Hard to tell what was used on your boat.
