Moving the eye forward on a big planer board will cause it to come forward more. Moving eye toward back will cause it to lag back more. About 1 inch is all that is needed to make a difference. Hope this helps.

 

I recently modified a set by performing the following:
- Added fin to each inside board
- Added 1lb of weight to each
- Moved eye 1.5 inches forward
- Moved eye up on board 1/2 inch
Made these changes one at a time and tested the boards after each change. I believe the movement of the eye made the biggest change. The changes all helped and these boards now pull good.

 

drill a hole 1" foward and 1" behind where your pull point is now and move the eye screw...See what you end up with...If your move the pull point to the upper part of the boards this will allow more of the board to be in the water and cause it to track a little different as well (nothing worse than seeing a set of planer board plans with an eye bolt right in the middle of an 8" board only 4" of it is sitting in the water)...the next thing is to add some weight to the outside board this will add a little lean to em cause them to dig a little more...

The next step is to upgrade to a heavier bigger set of boards if these adjustments dont suit your fancy...

 

Ok, thanks everyone! I will make some adjustments!
