Unknow switch

Hello, I would upload a photo but for some reason it won't let me, I just bought a 1973 SVR220 and it has this switch below the steering wheel that say's, bow up and down, port up and down, and starboard up and down, what is this switch for?

Hey Dave , Those switches operate  your trim planes. To trim the bow of tour boat  down,push the tab down in half second bursts. If you hold the button down, you can overtrim your bot and the bow will dig in. To correct  over trimming,push the button "up" to obtain the desired plning angle.

That's what I kind of figured but I don't have any trim planes on the boat and no evidence of any ever on the boat. Thanks for the info!

That should read "planing" angle.
