just bought the boat last summer, had noted the boat has a strong "P" factor to the right, about the 3rd time out,

maybe i hit a turtle to initiate the departure, steering wheel snappped so hard to the right knocked me on my a--, 17 ft boat,

motor is an 07, very low hours, had an 88 merc 90 drove for many years had some "P" factor nothing like this. had the boat

been a 15 i would have been in the water. Been running boats or 50 years, never had anything close to this even with

tillers????

any help would be great!! thx Tom

Check the trim tab. Was it knocked out of position or missing. Use your kill switch if you don't already. Sounds like the tab could have needed adjusting a slight bit from the start if the boat always wanted to pull to the right.
