by the net. This causes the boat to stray from its intended
course. To keep the boat on course, your need to adjust
the trim manually, which can be bothersome. If you do
not want to be bothered with trim adjustments, your can
enable the automatic towing function to have the trim au-
tomatically adjusted. This feature is useful for trawlers
and purse seiners. This feature is not available for a sail-
