i have a 02 skeeter fish/ski w/ 03 yamaha vmax 150. whenever i turn port i have to use both hands in order to turn but turning starboard is fine. I have tried straightening the trim tab from its few degrees off 0 but to no avail. Also when i disconnect the steering cables from the motor and turn the steering wheel out of the water it turns fine both ways. the boat when running on teh water runs straight and does not tilt one way or another. Any suggestions. Right now the trim tab is still set at 0 degrees.

Re: hard to turn port

rotate trim tab to starboard... try half way between center and full starboard.
