RE: the unofficial home of the dumas dauntless

Bill,

I installed the mixer yesterday evening and adjusted the Rudder slider to find the 'sweet spot' where both motors appeared to start at the same time. After much experimentation, that spot is apparently between two "indents" on the slider so I chose the one which was closest and then readjusted the rudders to mechanical center.

For the purposes of sea trials all that is left to do is balance the boat for and aft at about 15 inches forward of the stern, check the waterline balance and recharge the batteries. Then I need to make the time to go to the pond and run her.

Bob
