1. FOR NOT BOLTED MOTORS TO THE TRANSOM:
ALWAYS CHECK IF THE CLAMPS ARE PROPERLY
TIGHTENED BEFORE DEPARTURE AND ON THE WAY.

6.5. MOTOR ADJUSTMENTS
The motor requires an adjustment of its position in trim and height for better
performance in different navigation conditions and load distribution in the boat.
a) Motor height
For different makes of motors, even inside the same type of
shaft, the length of the shaft can vary. It is necessary to add
a shim to ensure correct height.
Correct motor height: it may vary from 0 to 30mm
clearance between keel line and anti-cavitation plate of the
motor. Check the motor manual for exact instructions.
Motor adjusted too high : propeller aeration may
occur with loss of forward thrust (capitation).
Motor adjusted too low : loss of speed and more
difficult steering may occur (splashes).
b) Motor trim:
The motor must be positioned so that the axis of the propeller is parallel with the
water surface. For better performance it can be adjusted either manually or with
power trim, if the motor is equipped with it.
Optimum position: axis of the
propeller is parallel with the water
surface.
Motor tilted outwards too far
from the transom: the boats
will porpoise.
Motor tilted inwards too near
the transom: the boat will
bow down.
