maneuverability.
Electro-hydraulic actuators provide an instant response. When
making adjustments, use short momentary taps of the switch.
Special Conditions
Head Sea: Lower the plate by tapping slightly DOWN. This will bring
the bow down while maintaining speed. This also allows the hull
of the boat to absorb the impact of the waves. This adjustment
will result in a more ecient and smoother ride. Changes should
be made in small increments to ensure maintaining control of the
boat.
Following Sea: Make sure the plate is fully retracted by pressing
UP. This will bring the plate up to a fully retracted position,
decreasing lift in the stern and allowing the bow to rise. If the plate
is deployed, the bow may dig.
Shallow Water/Hole Shot: Lower the plate completely by pressing
DOWN. This provides lift in the stern of the boat and will keep the
bow down. As you throttle up and speed increases, raise the tab by
pressing UP.
Uneven Load: If one side of the boat is higher than the other while
running, press DOWN on the switch on that side. This will lower the
tab on the listing side (low side) to bring the boat level.
Porpoising: To stop porpoising, press DOWN. The plate needs only
to be deployed slightly to correct this adverse situation.
Use caution when operating adjustment plates. Improper
adjustments may cause loss of control, which could result in
serious injury or death.
While the boat is underway do not move one plate up or down
significantly as this may cause listing. While at higher speeds do
not over-trim, as this will cause the bow to lower quickly, resulting
in a reduction of speed and may cause the boat to veer. When in
following seas or when running an inlet, the plates should be fully
retracted. This will allow for optimal performance.
Electro-hydraulic actuators provide an instant response.
When making adjustments, use short momentary taps of the
switch. Excessively powerful adjustments to the actuators may
cause loss of control, which could result in serious injury
or death.
