[QUOTE="CarlF, post: 102361, member: 1159"] torque tab Thats what I was trying to remember and just couldnt get it! My 18 has no torque tab. Depending on how the boat is trimmed and planed, at WOT it has anywhere from no pull to alot of pull (good bit of muscle to keep her straight) to starboard. At idle, she will spin in circles if I take my hand off the tiller. This can be a pain in the butt when picking up decoys, so I have a bungee on the motor that I use to keep a little tension on it. I havent tried to tighten the tension nut because I need effort-less steering at idle when picking up decoys. [/QUOTE]
