THRUST ANGLE ADJUSTMENT CONT.
15
POSITIVE THRUST ANGLE
With a positive setting, the boat will have a tendency to ride with the bow higher than usual. This
setting is useful in smooth water conditions to reach the highest speed possible. The boat will
handle “loose” and can become unstable, so it is better to make small adjustments and find the
optimum performance setting. Remember to write down your settings.
NEGATIVE THRUST ANGLE
With a negative thrust setting, the boat will have a tendency to ride with a bow low attitude. This
setting is useful for rougher water conditions to help keep the boat in the water and under more
control. At higher speeds when cornering there is a side effect of Bow Steering which causes the
boat to over steer or steer aggressively. Too much negative thrust will cause the boat to run “wet”
and limit the top speed.
NEUTRAL THRUST ANGLE (0 DEGREES)
The alignment of the propeller shaft is parallel to the bottom of the hull (keel) which is considered
zero degrees (0 deg) and a neutral setting. The thrust of the propeller is in line with the center of
the hull and has no effect on the hull ride angle.
