I have my boat in the water at a marina and the engine is stuck in the up postion. I think its the relay but cannot get the cover off when the motor is trimmed all the way up. I tried unscrewing the manual release value on the starboard side of trim bracket with no luck. Its very stripped and difficult to get a good angle on it in the water. I will have to get towed to the ramp if I need to bring it out of the water. Is there any other way to get the motor down?
