When starting
Trim the drive. The bow will be pressed down and the
boat accelerates faster. This gives improved running
and steering characteristics at speeds below the pla-
ning threshold.
At planing speed
Trim the drive out to the running position which feels
comfortable and the boat feels stable and smooth.
For maximum fuel economy
Run boat at a constant throttle opening. Trim the drive
out/in a little. The boat is most easily propelled and
speed will increase in the position that gives the high-
est engine speed. The throttle opening can then be
slightly reduced to retain the original speed.
In choppy seas or running against a
heavy sea
Trim drive so the bows drop. This will provide more
comfortable running.
WARNING! High speed running in a heavy sea is
dangerous. High speed running in a heavy sea
requires the driver’s maximum attention and a
boat of the right size and design for this type of
running.
Side winds
If the boat has a dual installation the drives can be
trimmed at different trim angles. This compensates for
side winds or uneven transverse load distribution (at-
hwartships), which makes the boat list during running.
