Please explain
 
I am new to my 312 fastech. Wondering what i am doing wrong? This has happen twice already, when taking off normal I notice or it feels like the boat will roll over. Both times I come off throttle and and it then corrects itself, then I proceed to take off again and it is fine.

Are drives too high? Should the tabs be down on take off etc?

Will these boats roll over?

Again this is normal take off.

thanks

I haven't had that happen, but I have noticed that the 12" x 12" trim tabs are useless!
Looking into putting bigger tabs on...

I’m running the 280 K plates

They have to be better!

Drives tucked in and tabs level or lower

What does roll over mean? Flip backwards?? Roll over to port/starboard?

LOL..............^^^^^.....next time leave the tabs neutral and just use the drive trim, you may have one drive trimming up and the other staying tucked, are there two separate switches for the drive trim or a single on the throttle ?

Yes roll over port to starboard.
Yes two separate switch and one on the throttle to control both at the same time. Also going to adjust tabs and drives to be even with hull at around 5/6 on trim indicator or shouldn’t it be set to some other number.


is that what you mean ?

I was going to say the exact same

and will add make sure one of the drives does not bleed down and or both are equal when you trim at the same time for either direction and for the tabs as well.
