Re: How to set the proper trim
When you think about it, you want the prop to push you forward, not waste its energy pushing you either up or down. So any up or down angle is inefficient. Theory says adjust so that the prop's at right angles to the water surface, regardless of transom angle. <br /><br />Easier said than done - and of course this is a variable, depending on the load, the speed, the hull shape and the angle of the boat in the water.<br /><br />The one certainty is that this is a variable!<br /><br />But so is life, ennit?<br /><br />Ciao
