After a haul out period and return to the water here in Clearwater I find that the steerage is a bit loose or difficult to keep on course. It seems to me like what one experiences in older cars with slack in the steering box. Is there anyway to tighten the tension on the chain, remove a link or two, etc?
Regards,
George

The way this is done is two adjustment bolts on the steering quadrant. Take the plate off of the steering quadrant and you will see the area. The bolts attach to the cable on the quadrant.
