Hi, Can anyone help me with trimming a motor?
I have a 25 Mercury on a 4.2m tinny. It only has a manual adjustment by relocating the "stop pin" in any one of about 6 different positions. Question is with extra people in boat, compared to only by myself, which way do I adjust the pin to get the nose of the boat out of the water more? Do I move the pin closer to the transom or further away? I suppose it is the same as with Power trim, do you tilt the motor up or down to bring the nose out of the water more?
Cheers steve0 :) :)
