CHAPTER 5
Always adjust the boat trim to provide balanced steering as
soon as possible each time you get underway. Some boat/
engine/propeller combinations may create boat instability and/
or high steering torque when operated at/or near the limits of
the "Bow UP" or "Bow DOWN" positions. Boat stability and
steering torque can also vary due to changing water conditions.
Operating the boat with unbalanced steering could produce
a dangerous steering condition that could result in minor or
moderate injury. If you experience boat instability and/or high
steering torque, see your Regal dealer immediately.
