Trim Angle Adjustment
Boat stability and steering torque can vary due to changing water conditions. If any
adverse conditions occur, reduce throttle and/or adjust tilt angle to maintain control.
If you experience boat instability and/or high steering torque, see your Dealer to cor-
rect these conditions.
If the bow of the boat plows the water at high speeds, the boat may bow steer or spin
suddenly, possibly ejecting or otherwise seriously injuring occupants.
Trim angle adjustment is accomplished by changing the location of the tilt pin.
Run the boat in the water to determine the best trim angle.
IMPORTANT: Weight distribution can affect the performance of the boat. Distribute weight
evenly in the boat before adjusting trim angle.
The boat should accelerate quickly, plane easily, and run parallel to the surface of the water
at high speeds.
If tilt pin is positioned too LOW the front of boat will be DOWN and push water.
If tilt pin is positioned too HIGH the front of boat will be UP and bounce.
To adjust the trim angle, refer to Tilt Pin on page 38.
