Pulling To The Left in Water

[Timbo]

97 Max IV with 26" Tru Power tires. When I pull the right lateral all the way back it is slower to turn right than when I pull the left lateral in water. With both laterals pushed all the way forward it drifts pretty hard to the left so I am constantly having to correct my course by pulling the right lateral back. Unfortunately I am in water way more than land so I don't have as much land perspective.

Its hard to describe but when I pull the left lateral all the way back I can feel a little more resistance and almost a click that I don't get when pulling the right all the way back. Do I need to adjust my T20 on the right side?

If the bands haven't been adjusted in a while then I suppose
adjusting them is in order. It is of routine maintence anyway.

Is the machine leaning to one side more than the other? This has influence on direction when in water.

Try sliding right in the machine a couple inches to counter the engine weight.
