That's what I call *wander*, every outboard and IO I've had did it to some
degree. Some boats seem to be self correcting so they just wander from
side-to-side when at idle speed or just above. Some wander side to side
turning a little more in one direction than the other, the best you can do
is learn your boat and anticipate it's motion, resulting in a straighter
course thru the marina.
Yeah right............

first time posting so if this is not the place let me know


the boss and i just took out the boat for the very first time,
and we noticed that a slow speeds leaving the marina, the boat seemed to
be wandering to the left.
when we try to correct, it has a slow responce and we end up
overcorrecting.
we look like a bunch of drunks.
at higher speeds on the lake every thing seems fine.
any ideas??
