Default New 1800SR owner

Thanks for the add.
Just bought this nice 2006 1800SR 4.3.
Been to the lake already. Great boat!
Only thing is it needs a lot of steering input at no-wake speed.

Welcome, nice looking boat!
That's normal, rear of boat wants to go faster than front.

You're old outboard was an anomaly.

No, I think it was the hull design. This boat is practically flat across the back. The old one was a tri hull and the hull shapes came all the way though the transom, so there was less inclination to wander at the ass end.
