When first using the watercraft, the
operator should become familiar with
the use of the variable trim system
(VTS) at varying speeds and water
conditions. A mid-range trim is gener-
ally used when cruising. Experience
alone will dictate the best trim for
the conditions. During the watercraft
break-in period, when lower speeds
are recommended, it is an excellent
opportunity to gain familiarity of trim
adjustment and its effects.
When the nozzle is positioned in an
upward angle, the water thrust directs
the bow of the watercraft upward.
This position is used to optimize high
speed.

When the nozzle is directed down-
ward, the bow is forced downward
and enhances the watercraft turning
capabilities. As with any watercraft,
speed and operator body position and
movement (body English), will deter-
mine the degree and sharpness of the
watercraft turn. Porpoising can be re-
duced or eliminated if the nozzle is
downward and speed is adjusted pro-
portionately.
