Re: Question about Trim
cheejudo,
Try this, When you're ready to get on plane, trim down and hammer the throttle down... "pedal to the metal" so to speak. Make sure your passangers are ready as well as you. Your bow will come up high briefly, and settle down on plane rather quickly. You don't have to wait for the bow to come all the way down to trim up. You can gradually ease the trim up in unisyn with the leveling off of the bow. This is one of the things you'll have fun becoming accustomed to. "Play" with the trim at different speeds and during varying water conditions. Pay attention to how it affects your handling and stability on the water. Everything is a learning experience. Have fun with it. The more you do this, the sooner you'll find yourself adjusting the trim as you throttle up and down to compensate for, and better handle varying water conditions without even thinking about it. This is why there is a trim switch on the throttle. The first time you find yourself doing this, you'll realize that you've been doing it for a little while and didn't even notice. It'll make you smile.
