[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 497411, member: 3438"] I think you have the manual trim too far in, such tha the motor is driving the V hull down at the bow which is causing your "snake" like action. It is dangerous to operate like that. Adjust it so the cav plate is parrellel to the boat bottom, and try it again. Moving weight forward, will help reduce the bow rise when getting on plane. If it is still a problem, you can try a foil, or my preferance, smart tabs. V bow steer is normal at slow speeds, non planning speeds, with deep V hulls. I have never had it with my small boats, but my fiberglass bowrider did. [/QUOTE]
