There appears to be an anchor roller above the outboard... using it should lift the motor if the mount has adequate travel. More information would be helpful here... did you recently purchase the boat? Did you change motors from when the gallery was installed? Did you just install the gallery?

My first impression is that the anchor roller was placed there to lift the motor but of course have no way of knowing if it was ever successful.

Correction, these me anchor roller has to pose last year, but without success, the cause is simple, the course on the top engines outboard and my gallery is very lower ,
I seek new system bracket engines or the assistance if a new system or trick can improve my sailing ship,
I have been the owner for 6 years ΒΆ
To answer about my Wheel steering , yes I like this for the behaviour with the wind and instrument is attached on the base wheel steering.
Thanks very
I sorry for my langages but i working very very hard (smile)

Has Bill Holcomb ever seen a set-up on a C25 like this? Is it a post-factory mod?

Noted on a cruising catamaran that had twin outboards that raising the props was handled by simply rotating the mount. Maybe some scheme using a rotating mount rather than a lifting mount would solve the problem.

That's an amazing boat.

I don't know what you can do to tilt the outboard, short of extending it a lot further aft.

That would have some structural problems too.
