I have a 1987 sport craft 20' fisherman I bought as a restoral project. I have the boat stripped down most of the way, just fuel tank, wires, and tilt and trim still on the boat. I'm getting ready to paint it so the sea drive tilt and trim has to go but I have to get it lowered to take a measurement for a bracket I'm havin made! Any ideas on how to get the tilt to lower without me having to set the motor or anything back on? I do know the tilt and trim work for fact. I have a Mercury motor I'm having a bracket made to fit on the sea drive. Any help? Thank you!
