Ok Have a Boat and a Motor. Just a start but hey it works..... uh anyways. Running at full speed with a 60 Horse Johnson on it likes to go right withut any help. Now trying to turn it left is a chore because it pulls hard.. Is the propellar off balance?

Re: Boat Turns By Itself

joe,<br />that would be reaction due to the prop turning right. look under the anti cavitation plate and adjust the little trim tab to counter that torque reaction from the prop. slight adjustment towards the right looking from behind the boat then run the boat. repeat 'til it gets better.
