Default Trim tab adjustment

While out cruisin' around with the Yukon, I had forgotten my tiller
extender and had to sit sideways most of the time to steer.
I found a bit of resistance, that became tiring over the afternoon, when
I pulled the tiller handle back to me in order to steer to port.
This afternoon, I loosened the trim tab and centered it by eye. The
forward part of the tab was noticeably pointing to port.
I may also have to loosen the steering friction adjustment screw to make
the movement nice & smooth.
I'll see how it feels the next time out.
