    Steering Control ?

    Have moved boat to new slip with tight slips and narrow canal. My 2520 Parker has a Penta Duoprop. I am having a great deal of problems controlling the boat. Is there any way of adjusting the steering sensitivity to get better steering response. Any advice from those pros out there. :?:
