Hi - hopefully someone knows the answer - i have just bought a 16'1" ski boat with two yamaha 60s. The boat veers strongly to the right - I understand that a boat would have a tendency to pull or veer to one direction due to the rotation of the props but the amount of pull even when idling is unacceptable. Is this a function of the pitch of the props, or is purely a trim tab adjustment. Any advice? Also - the boat came with a strange gauge - has stabilizer written on it - what is this for and how does it work. TKS

Try turning the trim tabs so they are offset to the right (rear of tab )...aint the faintest on the gage

Re: Boat pulls to the right

Does it do the same thing with both engines?
Are the tabs set the same on both engines?
