I own a 15 foot bass boat and when I am on the water it steers all ove the place. Could be the problem be fluid, linkage?

Re: Boat Steering

When on plane or low speed? Is it pulling or just real sloppy?

Re: Boat Steering

Assuming it's an outboard motor, is the zinc trim tab fin in place and set correctly?

Re: Boat Steering

Need more info. Is there play in the steering when NOT under way? What brand and model of boat? I/O or outboard? What kind of steering? How old is the boat? Is this a new problem or has it always been this way?

Unless you have hydraulic power steering on your 15' bass boat... I think we can rule out fluid....Welcome to iBoats. We need more info to help you. :rolleyes:
