The point is driving a boat is not as simple as people think.
Sure just about anyone can do it, but you have to feel it to get it right.
It's not just a case of what the gauges are telling you.
No, in fact I bet most of the guys on here don't even look at the gauges while their driving.



Accept maybe a worrying glance at the fuel gauge every now and again!

    Wow what a difference, gained about 7 mph just by trimming up 1/4 according to the gauge. Almost hit 50 mph at 4800 rpm
