Michele Sladko wrote that 2hp Honda 4 cycle wouldn't tilt up. I have a 3hp
Yamaha that if rotated sidewise along with adding 1/4 ply to back of fixed P
15 motor mount plus another 1/4 ply strip across top 2 inches of back of
mount moves motor away from transom and tilts rearward just enough to
enable tilting motor to top lock on motor and not touch transom. You can
test your Honda with some plywood shims to see what works. The 1/4 thickness
of course is shy of a full 1/4 inch. Owen Shaw , Nashville, #2216 no name
