New Mercury 25hp 4cycle with manual tilt

[Sealegs]

Considering this motor for a Lowe WV1470 v-hull. How manageable will it be to tilt up with only a manual tilt? I'm 73 years old and don't have the hp I used to.

Thanks

Absolutely not.. treat yourself and get the power tilt.

I'm only 45 and I don't like manually tilting the motor anymore. Stuck a CMC on mine last year, picked up 4 mph too. My back isn't what it used to be. Mostly constantly hurting.

I agree with them completely.

Thanks for the advice. Unanimous so far. May just drop down to a 9.9hp to fish restricted makes in the area. Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Thanks for the replays. It's unanamous. Also thinking about just going with a 9.9hp to fish some of the restricted hp lakes in the area. Would think I could manage a manual tilt 9.9 motor. Decisions, decisions, decisions.
