Setting Trim Tab

[JABS]

I have recently noticed that the boat pulls to the right when going along.

The trim tab anode is missing!

Which side do I trim it to, if I am to get the boat running straight?

Thanks.

Usual story, so many variables etc etc.

Bung it in straight, see what happens & tweak it from there.

Front of the tab should be more to the port than the back. This will try and push the motor to port, which should ease the pull to starboard.

I think.

Yes, this sounds logical. Thanks!

Problem is, this is one of those settings that gives you headache trying to figure out how what affects what.

Bottom line: If what I said earlier doesn't work, go the other way.
