We have our Venture 25 in a very tight Marina, and is it very shallow also (4 ft).
How do you steer better ?
1.- Coordinating the movement of the tiller with the movement from the OB Motor ?
2.- Taking out the tiller and steering with just the OB Motor ?
3.- Leaving the tiller in a center fixed position and steer with the OB Motor ?.
4.- Leaving the OB Motor in a fixed center position and steer with the tiller.
Apreciate your help.
It is difficullt to steer in reverse. And I dont know if te keel should be up all the way or it will help a little if you have it a little down like 1 ft.
For me, the Outboard Motor (Evinrude 9.9 Yachting) have the tiller from the motor too far from the stern, so I have to steer the motor seated outside the lifeline rails.
Also, to run fresh water into the motor, first of all, is very far from the stern and second, the intake water holes, are positioned between two metal rails, so the earmuds from your hose cant fit flush. Do I have to cut it to fit ?.
How can I reach the water intake that far, easily ?.
Thank you
