To maintain a straight cour se, keep at least one
hand in control of the steering wheel at all
times while underw ay.
NOTE:
Deep vee boats ha ve a tendency to
“hunt” (wander from side to side) at slow
speeds with the steering wheel held straight
ahead. This is a nor mal occurrence and can be
minimized by anticipating boat mo vement and
giving a slight tur n of the steering wheel in the
opposite direction.

model and engine configuration. Be sure to con-
sult the engine and the control manual for an
