Default Quarky stearing on a 24 Imperial with a Volvo 290 OD

It takes awhile for the boat to respond to the helm. Turn it slightly then
bring the wheel back to "neutral" and wait for the boat to respond. It
sounds to me that you are oversteering the boat.

Is this a new problem? Or a new boat? Lots of planning hulls wander

from
side to side at low speed.


We have just been trying to get all the bugs out of tis boat so we can use

it.
I don't know about wandering being normal, but this is kind of drastic. I

have
trouble keeping the boat on one side of the channel while there is traffic
going the other way. People look at me as if I had been drinking its that

bad.

Thanks
Rick
