Default Lund Rigging Question #1 - just curious

OK, so I have had this new Lund Pro-V 1875 with a 150 Merc 4 stroke for a few months now and am curious about the position of outboard when I travel down the road. I leave the house with the engine trimmed up and positioned straight on the panther transom saver. By the time I get to the lake, the engine is tilted to one side or the other and no longer straight. Is this normal? My other engine stayed straight down the road. Is the steering too loose? I am not able to straighten the engine out by hand unless I do it with the steering wheel. I know this is goofy but I am curious. Thanks in advance

That is normal. Get a MY Wedge Centering clips (if you have power assist steering).

Footdoc,
Do you care where the engine is centered or not when trailing the boat?
