Hi Steve & mel,

I have heard that with a single outboard you have to reduce the thrust of the engine to get the rudders to work, For example – Get boat moving astern in a straight line , cut the engine revs and put helm hard over. Once she starts to turn gun the motor to get her moving faster. I haven't had a chance to try this yet but have been reliably informed by an old salt on an Ocean Winds who once also had an HT.

Regards Martin – Soltrykk HT Mk1.
