    tiller torque

    Run through a pile of eel grass the other night, so i raised up 1 pin hole. Don't know if that would have anything to do with what's going on. When she's wide open it feels like my tiller is being pulled to one side? I've never experienced this, anyone else run into this issue? Thanks
