I just purchased.a 1990 Donzi 18' classic with a 350 engine OMC King Cobra Stern drive.
It has power steering and per the manual a trim tab does not come with the lower end.
My boat pulls to the left and I cant figure why. If I go 2 mph or 30mph it pulls to the left when I let go of the wheel.
I verified I have the correct prop install which is a 21+ pitch.

It doesn't appear to be.
Is that something that would push it in one direction?
It's a 14 1/2 with a 21 pitch. I
Funny you should mention that.
I have a 2010 receipt from the prior owner of the prop being repaired. Cost $200.00

Ayuh,.... Welcome Aboard,..... You could add a torque tab, even if it ain't called necessary,.....

I'd try a different prop 1st though,... any prop close to what's on there, just for Testin' purposes,.....

I'm lost I never heard of a torque tab before.
I'm actually thinking of modifying a trim tab above the prop and trying that.

Perhaps should try a prop first
