Pre-Launch and Underway - Section S

Remember that all boats steer by the stern (the feeling

is much like steering your automobile in reverse). This

means that the stern of your boat will swing in the

direction opposite to your turn. For example, when you

turn the helm wheel to the left, the stern of your boat

will swing in the direction opposite to your turn. This is

especially important to keep in mind when docking,

operating in close quarters with other boats, or when

approaching a swimmer or downed skier in the water.

Always look behind you and to both sides of the boat

before slowing down. Tell your passengers your

intentions to allow them time to make adjustments to

their balance or positions.

Slowly pull back on throttles, glance back and see if a

large following wave is approaching the transom. If so

give the engines a little throttle as the wave arrives to

keep wave from rolling over the transom.

Once you have spent enough time practicing maneu-

vers and have a feel for how the boat handles, you will

be ready to run in open waters.

S - 6 ACCELERATION

Before accelerating to bring you boat on plane,

be sure that the area in front of your boat is

clear. The bow will rise out of the water

momentarily before you plane and may

temporarily obstruct your vision.

If you have never had your boat on plane before,

choose a calm day for your first on plane experience.

Never boat beyond your ability and experience.

Before bringing your boat “on plane”, check the entire

area to make sure you have a clear, safe path. As you

throttle up to accelerate, your boat will increase its

angle of trim, causing the bow to ride high. From a

maximum angle, the boat will level out to its planing

attitude with continued acceleration. This maximum

angle is known as the “hump”. Because visibility,

handling, and performance are reduced, it is advisable

to get “over the hump” as soon as possible. A few

seconds at full throttle should get the boat over the

hump and into its planing attitude.

After getting over the hump, accelerate until reaching a

comfortable plane, then throttle down to cruising speed.

This also will provide for better fuel efficiency.

S - 7 TRIMMING YOUR BOAT

Trim tabs are used to add lift to the boat’s stern,

thereby changing the boat’s attitude. This lift can help

the boat get on plane faster and remain on plane at

slower speeds than if no tabs were used. Used

independently, tabs can also correct listing conditions

caused by crosswinds, unbalanced loading and

quartering seas.

Before accelerating and trying to gain plane, press

upper button. This will cause both trim tab blades to

lower in parallel and force the bow down when

running. This can also be used when running the

boat with a heavy load aboard.

Moving the trim tab blades downward will in crease

the lift and the boat will achieve plane faster, or stay

on plane at a lower engine and boat speed.

After gaining plane and establishing cruising speed,

pressing the lower button retracts the blades in

parallel and will allow the bow to rise. This should be

used to adjust the run ning attitude of the boat to

decrease the drag at cruising speed or above, or

when run ning in a following sea.

When running at an engine speed that results in the

boat falling off plane or causes the boat to plane

inefficiently, lowering the blades slightly (bow down)

will improve the running angle and improve operating

efficiency.

Optimum efficien cy is obtained when operat ing at a

3 to 5 degree running angle. Utilizing too much “Bow

Down” trim tab can reduce operat ing effi ciency and

cause substan tial stee ring and handling difficul ties.

Be extreme ly careful when running in a following sea.

The effect of trim tabs is ampli fied under such

condi tions. Steer ing and handling difficulties can

result from im proper trim tab usage, espe cially in a

following sea. If unsure of proper trim tab positioning,

raise the trim tabs to the full-up position.
