On a used boat & Suzuki outboard engine I purchased the stern fin is bent about 5 degrees to the left. Would this or the Zinc trim tab cause the boat to track to the right? Tracking increases with speed.

Re: Bent stern fin

Yes it will effect your "steering feedback" and handling. Try adjusting the tab to counter act the pulling.<br /><br />Bob
