Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: My 1995 Dauntless 17 DC drives like an old farm truck.

At no wake speed or 6 knots. I'm constantly moving the steering wheel. The 1995 Mercury motor was missing a zinc behind the prop so I grabbed one off the shelf. It "looks" like it should be there but IDK. How do I improve the way I'm tracking. If you've ever driven an old truck with loose steering you now what I mean. The boat looks like it came out of the factory set up for water skiing and has a six bladed after market prop. Should I lose the prop? Thanks folks and my questions might not be bright but they are well intentioned.
