Getting back in the boat after going for a "swim"

That is an excellent way for a swimmer to get back in the boat when it
is cold out, and 3 or 4 layers of clothing is soaked. Your so heavy
that you will not be able to climb in on a ladder.

Simply trim it down, stand on the plate and trim it and you out of the
water. Carefully make your way to the deck and get out of those wet
clothes and into some dry. Or wrap yourself into a space blanket or
rain gear until you can wring water out of your insulateds.

Of course that only works if you have power trim and a switch on the engine.

Its helpful too if your partner still in the boat is your 10 year old son or
8 year old daughter and you just don't have what it takes to lift yourself
back int he boat for whatever reason. Or if winter fishing and the guy in
the water is holding way to much water in all his layers of clothes to lift
him out of the water. That hydraulic trim can move an 1800 pound boat. The
tilt part of travel still moves a 500-600 pound motor.
