I have a 2006 Bayliner 185 and I have noticed that when I trim all the way up on full throttle it starts to pull to the left. If I trim down just a little it stops pulling. I checked the stern drive and everything looks fine.

Re: Bayliner 185 pulling to the left

More than likely your trim tab needs to be tweaked a bit. It is located right above the prop - looks like a sharks fin - . As your prop turns one way this little tab tries to counter the rotation of it, sort of like a tail rotor on a helicopter. Just loosen it and turn it a bit, it will be trial and error. Hoping someone will come along with more specific instructions.
