If you find the nose bouncing in wind, then you need to adjust the
trim a little - check to make sure that you put it back where I had it
because at that setting, it was perfectly balanced even with two
people aboard.



Do you remember where you had the trim?
From the bit of dirt markings...it looks like you had the bolt in the second
hole from the transom side. I have it there now, but might try the 1st
position to see if it makes any difference. I went up to M.M.O.S. today and
bought the rectangular 'ear muffs' for flushing after salt water service and
I picked up a throttle arm extension to see if I like sitting on the
bulkhead seat better.

I just need a nice calm day on a lake to fool around a bit.

Second hole from the stern. First hole will force the nose down and
you won't get any bow lift on take off.

I'm a little surprised that you are having some trouble with the
balance - you weigh less than I do - it should be even better.

Hmmm - must think about this.
