Default AV Plate at Water Surface





Big Sean, as I previously remarked raising the engine may help. Check that the AV plate is at the top of the water. The first pic with black tape on the top of the AV plate was in Oct 2019 shortly after I redid my transom on my 20' Seafari and raised the engine about 0.750", which made steering easier particularly at higher trim angles. At the previous position when trimmed way up, it was like I could not steer off of straight ahead.

The second pic is from a few days ago, actually to show the trim tab. Both pics were at about 28-30 mph.
