[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 465780, member: 15636"] There is a bypass circuit/path in hydraulic trim systems for that very reason, but we’d need Pappy to chime in and advise if they are as responsive to strikes as your other motors were. My gut tells me ‘no’, but that’s a guesstimate. Now I did hit a log w/ a V6 OB once whilst up cruising on plane and that motor sure bounced up (and suffered no damage, if you can believe it!), but either way ... there’s still a lot of metal in motion and I’d like to see what an expert thought. TurboTodd here is really sharp on motors too, so maybe he’ll see this post too. [/QUOTE]
