TUNING TIPS AND PROP INFO

STRUT: The type of strut your boat is supplied with is called a

“Stinger” strut.

Tilting the strut up lifts the prop out of the water as well as

changing the thrust angle to positive. Lowering (tilting down)

does the opposite. It is good to keep in mind that lowering the

prop or tilting down causes the prop to run deeper, supplying

more load and causing the boat to run tighter as well.

When adjusting the strut, make very small adjustments at a

time. To adjust the strut we recommend removing the two

larger center bolts from the strut and very carefully bending the

stinger’s brass stufﬁ ng tube up or down. Re-install the bolts and

tighten. When making smaller adjustments you do not have to

remove the bolts.

Also note that if you feel you want to go past the adjustment

limits of the boat, you might have to slide the stinger off the

stufﬁ ng tube and ﬁ le or remove some of the forward boss

feature of the strut.

Grimracer Says: Use a 12" or 24" straight

edge placed along the bottom of the keel to

help view the changes.

Here is a simple “how to” regarding adjusting the strut:

1. Use a 3mm hex wrench to loosen and swing the starboard

turn ﬁ n up and out of the way.
