Hey guys, just bought my first bass boat and I'm having a problem with it getting on plane. It's a 1994 Nitro 170 DC Rick Clunn Edition with 115 hp Evinrude, I got a hell of a deal on it so I felt like it was time to pull the trigger. I've spent the last couple weeks intermittently working on it when I got the chance, before I put it on the water. The main thing we fixed was a bad neutral safety switch. Yesterday we decided it was time for her maiden voyage to see what we were working with, and she just did not want to get on plane. We had the throttle full bore and it just kept plowing through the water. We trimmed it up and down trying to find the sweet spot and it just was not interested in getting on plane. Eventually it did plane out, but not until it mulled through the water for a minute or two. I noticed that it would get up out of the water quicker if we'd put her in a turn, or if we started to catch a little chop in the water. Another unusual thing dealt with the yaw, it had a tendency to pull hard right, to the point that you had to fight the steering wheel, it would be exhausting if you had to drive it for any significant distance. However, I think there is a trim tab on the back we can adjust. We've had the ear muffs on it out of the water, and that engine will flat out run, great response, and sounds good. Had the carbs rebuilt and all new plugs. I've asked two of my buddies for suggestions, one thought maybe the prop was slipping, and the other thought maybe I have a prop that is just too much for the boat to handle? I think the latter sounds more logical, that could make sense why it struggled to push the boat on plane, and once it was on plane, a clockwise turning prop would push the boat to the right? I'm just wondering if you guys have any suggestions? My father and I are both at a loss, he's owned multiple boats in his day, but they were all inboard ski boats, never an outboard with a 2 stroke. Thanks in advance!
