Steering issues means props have too much growth!
We left our winter marina last weekend and had a hell of a time steering our way out and on to tje town wall, so we got the GoPro down below and found the reason! Our props had 5 months worth of marine growth on them! They looked awful! We cleaned them just enough to get our steering to function.
We will haul out in May and take them all apart and make them look new again!
