OK i took it out last weekend for the 1st time, everything went pretty good except that the boat chine walked several times, pretty scary feeling especially since it was my 1st time driving a boat... do any of you have this same problem? any fixes for it? I did some reading on it and some say that 4 blade props can sometimes cure it, I dont see how though... Chine walk, as I understand it, is a lateral cyclical roll caused by a V hull rising high in the water at speed. Not much of a footprint. I have experienced this while getting familiar with my "new" boat, which is an I/O in a deep V 18' hull. I'm sure it's attributable to my inexperience with trim tabs as well as the motor trim. Certainly can get worse in a hurry at speed. For now, I stay away from full throttle. 4 blade prop might help by lowering top end speed? surfnturf |
