Usually a banged up prop will give you vibration. Set the tabs down a little to get rid of the walking. feels like when a wave hits from the side of the boat, it starts getting crazy untill backin off the thottle or more tabs settles it down, is that chine walkin?? thought that is when it starts move sideways with the prop rotation.....but first real offshore boat with over 400hp :D cosmic.....usaually have trim set a little less than first line above bottom setting(fulldown) after plane |

cosmic.....usaually have trim set a little less than first line above bottom setting(fulldown) after plane If your trim indicators are 0-10, 0 being all the way in, you should be running the trim up around 4 or 5 after planing off. Sounds like you've got the drives trimmed in way too much, if I'm reading your post correctly. |

Mike...are trimming the drive to high? I ran ours today down the river and some a-hole wasn't looking and almost pulled in front of us....so I lay into it to get around him before the bridge and got caught up in some boat wakes at about 67-68 mph started to chine walk a bit.....drop the drive a bit to settle her down and then roll back into it and bring it back up!! Damn this little 25 ft 415 horse :rolleyes: boat runs its azz off. I leave the tabs at 3-4 on the indicator. Here is a picture of the tabs on our boat........See it back there doin' what its supposed to do.....fly level, fly fast!!!

Re: need 25 or 28 AT
Thanks, now i know the correct meaning of chine walkin....
definatly was chine walkin, trim&tab indicators are a dial gauges........no numbers just lines another newbie question.....drive trimed in means drive down or up? sounds like I just need some more drivetime vaca comin up! Thanks for all the advice.......... Cosmic will be near the bay friday around noon. |
Re: need 25 or 28 AT
Trimmed in means drive is down. With the gauges you will have to drive by feel. You'll get it down. I've had my 25 for 7 years and can make her dance over the waves. It all takes time!!! Have fun doin' it!! :cool:
