New to boating, fixed / fixing a plethora of issues with new to me boat. have a 18' glastron with 280 od and 302 merc eng.
now as far as i know the leg tilt system is only designed for trailering and what not. but is the fixed lock trim the only option?
- i've been looking for an alternative to diy or add a power trim cylinder setup to leg.
- there isn't much of a sweet spot for top end with only the 3 selections of trim. i either porpoise pretty bad and torque steer so bad you CANNOT take your hand off the wheel.
i was looking for a basic operating instruction manual but all i can source is a service manual for repairs, that don't answer a few of my questions.
-reverse is useless if the water is shallow and can't drop leg down to locked position. am i new or what is the mode of action here for shallow water circumstances?
i run the boat in freshwater lakes only in western Canada.
bought to use for run about and water skiing. new prop installed 4 blade 14x19
any generic advice for a newbie with a olddd sterndrive?
