Hey everyone,
Just bought a new 2011 Larson LX 850 18' bowrider about a month ago. I grew up with boats, but they had outboard engines and this is my first experience with a Merc sterndrive. One of the first things I noticed is that this thing does NOT want to go in a straight line when going slow. I have no idea why, but I finally took some videos of this tonight.
Makes it very difficult to stay in a channel...what can be causing this? Steering seems very tight to me. I'll post the videos I took tomorrow morning...
