Interesting, I will definately check into it. I guess it could break, its only aluminum.

I never use it at my slip, especially cause' its tough to get to
from in the boat, and I might fall in !!!!

I just leave it tilted up all the way out of the water on the hydraulics. I have not seen any corrosion problems with doing that either, I would be more worried about that than the load on the pistons. Imagine how strong those hydraulics are to tilt that engine out at WOT in strong seas!
