[QUOTE="CRS, post: 510152, member: 21726"] The motor stows without any change in speed while the boat is moving, mine will auto shut off and stow when the stow button is pushed. Another useful feature when approaching the shore is to raise the motor by using the trim control, I raise it and watch and listen for the splash. I know then that the prop is breaking the surface. It still propels the boat but can work in very shallow water. I have a Tracker Grizzly with a flat bottom, I would think a V hull would actually ground before the prop would hit bottom. This is also handy when launching the boat, the trim returns to the position it was last trimmed to. All this makes it safe for the motor in the shallows, within reason. The Ulterra is a fantastic motor and with the Ipilot incredible. [/QUOTE]
