    Suzuki or Honda?

    I too had some problems centering my 22' ,it always was pushing on my guide board to the port side, every time I was loading the boat back on the trailer . Yes a few time I push the boat back, 1 inch or so by myself , but I have bad shoulders, so I had to stop doing that. My trailer has bunks...

Then I put the boat in the water ,did the radar set to factory specs , then proceeded checking what the screen was seeing . Worked 100%. Use it in good weather to practice , and it is working...
