Bravo I trim issues

I have a 5.7 with a Bravo I and it seems like the out drive is not going all the way down. I took the boat out this last weekend and when trying to come up on plain, it sounded like there was a little cavitation. The weekend before, I had neglected to make sure the outdrive was in the up position when pulling the boat out of the water causing the out drive to hit the ground. It was not a hard hit, just a little drag. However, I am wondering if maybe that hit knocked the trim out of adjustment, if there is such a thing. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Bravo I trim issues

there isn't a trim alignment as your thinking of

you might want to check it on your trailer. cycle it to make sure its going all the way up and down

BE SURE TO HAVE SOMEONE WATCH WHEN YOU RUN IT DOWN. not all trailer have enough clearance to lower the drive all the way to the ground

Re: Bravo I trim issues

Has any one pulled off you stern drive lately for service? And now you are having the problem. And if not, Is there any way the prop hit the ground ever? If it get's bent it could do this also. Or it could be the rams not going in all the way.
