We repowered our 42 and we are not sure if the prop is far enough out. Would someone that has their 42 pulled please measure the distance. We are experienceing the helm pulling hard to starboard under power.

Check your rudder. There's an article on the Endeavour Owners web site about an E40 pulling to starboard. It explains the rudder having more curvature on the starboard side and acting like a airfoil. The last time we hauled I could see the port side was flatter. I sanded it down to the glass and built it up to match the starboard. Now she tracks with no pull. _________________ s/v Searenity
