Adjusting boat trim

When the boat is on plane, a bow-up attitude

results in less drag, greater stability and effi-

ciency. This is generally when the keel line of

the boat is up about 3 to 5 degrees. With the

bow up, the boat may have a greater tenden-

cy to steer to one side or the other. Compen-

sate for this as you steer. When the bow of the

boat is down, it is easier to accelerate from a

standing start onto plane.
