Trim In Pin
!
WARNING
Operating the boat at high speeds with the outboard trimmed
too far under can create excessive bow steer, resulting in the
operator losing control of the boat. Install the trim limit pin in a
position that prevents excessive trim under and operate the
boat in a safe manner.
Some boats, particularly some bass boats, are built with a
greater than normal transom angle, which will allow the outboard
to be trimmed further in or under. This greater trim under
capability is desirable to improve acceleration, reduce the angle
and time spent in a bow high boat during planing off, and in
some cases, may be necessary to plane off a boat with aft
livewells, given the variety of available propellers and height
range of engine installations.
