9.4. Adjusting the trim angle
These are the main rules when adjusting the trim angle:
- When bringing the boat to plane, keep the ‘bow down’ position.
- When the boat is planing and seas are calm, keep lifting the bow until you can feel that both the
engine and the boat move very easily. In calm waters, the engine should normally be trimmed up at
least 3 scale marks on the trim indicator on the revolution counter. If the engine is trimmed up too
much, the speed of the boat will be reduced. If the boat is trimmed too low, the boat will run slowly
and the engine will run heavily. To achieve good fuel economy, it is important to drive the boat with
the right engine trim angle.
-
In heavy head seas, lower the bow to allow it to slice through the waves better, thus providing a
smoother ride.
- In following seas, raise the bow to avoid ‘diving’ into the waves.
- When reversing, raise the trim angle slightly to bring the engine up.
WARNING! Do not drive the boat at high speeds with the engine trimmed up (bow up), as
there is a risk of sudden heeling when the propeller hits the water again after a
flight in heavy waves. Likewise, do not drive at high speed with the engine com -
pletely trimmed down (bow down) since this can cause the boat to pitch unex -
pectedly when the bow hits the water.
WARNING! Waves reduce manoeuvrability and make the boat heel. Accordingly, reduce
speed when encountering heavier seas.
9.5. Starting the engine
1.
Switch the power on using the main power switch.
2. Lower the engine to the driving position by pressing the Power Trim button on the gear/throttle
handle.
3. Check that the gear/throttle handle is in the neutral position and that the emergency switch is at -
tached to the bottom of the remote control.
4.
Switch on the current, using the start key, without starting the engine and wait a few seconds for
the warning lights to light up.
5. Start the engine by turning the ignition key clockwise until the engine starts. If everything is in order,
the engine should start within 1-2 seconds. If the engine does not start, you should not try to start it
for more than 10 seconds at a time.
6.
After the engine has started, let it idle for a few minutes before setting off. (Please refer to the en -
gine manual!)

9.6. Driving
It is easy to drive when the weather is fine and the sea is calm. However, always remember to keep an ade -
quate lookout. In order to maintain the best possible visibility from the driver’s position, you should do this:
-
Ensure that passengers do not restrict your visibility.
- Do not drive near planing speed for long periods, as the bow comes up and reduces visibility.
- When visibility is poor, look over the windscreen.
- Remember to also keep a lookout behind you, particularly on shipping lanes and heavily trafficked
routes.
