[QUOTE="NDwalleyes, post: 340029, member: 218"] Rule # 1 - Keep it in the water while you are fishing. I try to keep the motor in the water as much as possible when putting it on the trailer (i.e. trim it up as little as possible). When I'm getting pulled out of the water I trim it back down and then hit the key and start it for a few seconds to clear things out. I'll leave it vertical in the parking lot for as long as I can before putting the transom saver on. Rule # 2 - Make sure they driver comes out of the water SLOWLY and then stops to let the water drain off the trailer and back into the water as much as possible, so you don't drag water up the ramp that will freeze and ice up the ramp. Rule # 3 - Bring a 5 gallon bucket of sand/salt mix with you in case someone didn't follow rule # 2 [/QUOTE]
