Chick Lake rents small jon boats with gas outboards and as I'm fishing I am watching two of the rental boats go by. The bow on one of them was riding very high. The operator was convinced that it was because he did not have enough weight in the bow and even moved an anchor up front. (It didn't help.) One day on Lake Prince I saw the same thing, although there I could hear the guy tell his buddy that he had the motor trimmed properly. (obviously he didn't) I could plainly see yesterday that the motor was not trimmed properly. Here's a page from my Evinrude 9.9 manual.



You would think that the folks renting these boats would have the motor trimmed properly. Perhaps they did and they renter changed something?
