The boat should accelerate quickly,
plane easily, and run parallel to the
surface of the water at high speeds.
If trim position is too LOW the front of
boat will be DOWN and push water.
If trim position is too HIGH the front of
boat will be UP and bounce.
TTrriimm
In most operating conditions, it is rec-
ommended to trim the outboard to the
full down position while accelerating.
As the boat comes on plane, trim the
outboard up for best performance.
Run the boat in the water to determine
the best trim angle.
Over-trimming increases engine RPM
while decreasing speed. The best trim
setting is when the highest speed is
achieved with the lowest engine RPM.
IIMMPPOORRTTAANNTT:: Weight distribution
can affect the performance of the
boat. Distribute weight evenly in the
boat.

NNOOTTEE:: Throttling past idle with the
engine tilted will cause the engine to
automatically trim down into the water
to help protect the engine.
Adjust the outboard position within the
tilt range for shallow water operation.
