Some of the old outboard hydro and runabout racers would pin them as the "Forward Stop" and then run a couple of bungees around the leg so they would flop around unless they hit something (like another hyro that flipped). This of course was back before Mercury's were White, back when they were Green and had really bad coils and no neutral or reverse. However, if you could get the coils to "catch", the Hurricanes would "yodel".
