2000 Reinell 240, 7.4 merc I/O, Bravo one, 22 four blade SS prop (clean no damage)
I am having tracking problems at idle speed and min wake speeds. Bow goes left and right about three feet each way. If I don't touch the wheel, I head in the same general direction even with it swinging like this. It only becomes an issue if there is heavy traffic or going under a bridge. Lots of correct steer. The drive is not loose at all and there is no steering wheel involuntary movement. I can see the top of the drive and it is not moving. However the prop wash does go left then right. Is this an easy fix with maybe a hydrofoil or something? Maybe a skeg type anode? There is a regular disc anode in its place.
