Yes, my 35 does this also, and with the larger prop and longer prop shat placing it closer to the rudder, it is quite pronounced. I use the friction knob on the pedestal to add some friction so I don't have to always hold the wheel so tight. It definitely increases with speed, so that my wimpy autopilot cannot correct the course over about 5.5 knots due to the pull.
I was told the angled shaft was to reduce propwalk, but not sure if this is true. -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com S/V Callisto, 1974 C&C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto On Mon, Sep 16, 2019 at 9:28 AM Dan via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Thanks everyone - this definitely settles the issue for me. > I had a feeling the pull was there before so I'm not totally alarmed by > the effect, and I will certainly try the immediate throttle-down to test > the concept.
