[cool][#0000ff]Some toons really take some balancing to get them to run right. Weight distribution is the biggie. If you have the battery off center, etc. Sometimes just moving the motor mount a few inches one way or the other (to counteract torque) will make a difference. They are so light that it does not take much to mess up the line.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I have also seen something as simple as a transducer left in the water creating enough drag to throw off the track. Even worse is a fish basket...full or empty. Anything that creates drag on one side will pull the toon around.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]One other thing to check is the strapping on the air chambers. If you have them cinched up so that they do not ride exactly vertical, that could cause some water friction in the wrong direction. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I wonder if liposuction would help?[/#0000ff]
