Twin engine duo prop drives toe in adjustment

[Neilthesparky]

Good evening all, second question of the evening!
Do twin duo prop out drives require the toe in set up as described in the maintenance manual??
Mine seem to have quite a bit, going to adjust but the manual seems a little unclear if the toe in is required for duo prop legs??
Many thanks again

Neil

The workshop manual states for a duoprop installation the following, find the distance between the centres of the steering pivots (centre of the steering helmet where the shaft goes up into the transom shield)
Then pushing both drives outwards by hand measure from the right hand corner of one cavitation plate at the rear where the exhaust outlet is to the same point on right hand side of the other cavitation plate, the distance should be 15-20 mm less.
This for DP E / G drives.

Cheers spannerman, I'm going to adjust then as my poor boat looks cross eyed
