C180 Trim Tabs

[Jnz]

Does anyone make trim tabs for a 05 C180? The boat seems to bounce even on the almost smoothest conditions. New wear ring, impeller, and ride plate resealed if any of those would cause this. If not tabs another solution is welcomed.

Not sure of your model, but if you have two engines, you can run one of them with slightly less rpms than the other and the resulting uneven drag helps reduce the porpoising. I just found that out recently.

You should check your nozzle bushings (#34 in the pic). You can adjust the angle of the nozzle by rotating it 180 degrees.

Would I want it closer to the boat side or away?

You want the bottom rotating point close to the boat so that the nozzle is point down a little more than in the other position.

Ok. I'll definitely check this out. Thanks!
