Pulling to the right while underway

Post by CayoHueso »

My 1986 27 FC pulls to the right while underway. Is there a rudder adjustment that can be made to correct the "pulling"?

If you still have the original steering, it might be too loose. When mine wanted to wander to the right, I found a nut on the back of the steering box (where the wheel is attached). This nut I tightened a little at a time until the steer was stiffer.
This might be your issue.
