Bassing, Art, again thanks for the help. Bassing, I don't have anything but a small 'fin'. Art, I think you are correct. I will make some adjustments in the driveway before my next trip and see. This time, I will bring the wrench and socket I need to adjust as you say before I get there and if the ramp isn't busy, and do some more testing/adjusting while I'm there Not a big deal, just hate that on the initial start the dang thing pulls hard to the right until I can find the correct trim adjustment. The boat gets on plane quickly with the 40HP/16ft boat. I 1st thought that when I was the only one in the boat that the right pull was due to my 190lb butt on the right side of the boat. But, even with another 190lb person on the left side, it does the same thing.
