    Trim tabs. Airplanes have them on the rudder also.

    If the boat pulls to the left or right, you can bend the tabs a little and make it run straight.
    Thanks, Chuck

    Went for a ride today but camera glasses went on the fritz and didn't have a small enough point to hit the reset button.... will catch some video tomorrow of a short ride.... burned about 3 gallons in 2 hrs today... really windy.... definitely felt the drag on the cage going into the wind... still ran about 25-27 into the wind... with the wind was hitting 35... water is really deep... found a few shallow spots but didn't get into it hard when going through them... found some underwater stumps also... good thing I was on top when i bumped them
