Just bought my first bought and took it out for the second time ever. Each time when bringing the boat in I have approached the dock and once in place (held by passengers, tied up, whatever) I kill the engine. Next thing I do is raise the drive, in which case the display says the drive is raising/raised. I hear the motor raising it too (or should I say trying to). Since I'm new and paranoid, I physically check to see if it's raised. It's not. I put the key back in and turn it a quarter turn, try to raise the drive and get the same results - hear the motor trying to raise the drive etc. Of course analog display says it's already raised. Luckily I have a transom switch. This does work.
Am I doing someything wrong? I'm still breaking the motor in so I cant really run it too hard but how can I be sure the drive is being raised/lowered while driving? It feels like it is but then again I am so new that I dont exactly know what it should feel like.
Sorry for making this so long... just wanted to try and explain myself as best as possible.
Thanks!
